Tasting Notes

Cool-climate Chardonnay defined by chalky minerality with citrus, apple, and pear at the core. It’s energetic and precise, avoiding heavy butteriness in favor of brisk acidity and a clean, focused profile.

Food Paring

Pair with Dungeness crab, grilled halibut, or roast chicken to complement the wine’s citrus-mineral drive. It also pairs well with creamy risotto or lemony pasta, where brightness keeps the dish lifted.

Professional Reviews

95 Vinous

"The 2017 Chardonnay Estate is quite deep and almost phenolic in its sense of structure. This a rare Chardonnay that absolutely demands cellaring. Sage, almond, dried pear, chalk, mint, lemon confit and crushed rocks develop with time in the glass, but the 2017 is a wine that will need at least a few years in bottle to start drinking well. Readers should be in no rush."
