2025 Unoaked Chardonnay

The 2024 Unoaked Chardonnay is a lovely expression of our estate-grown Wente and Chardonnay Musqué clones. The wine boasts aromas of lemon blossoms and freshly cut crisp pear. Flavors of ripe honeydew and Sur lie aging bring lovely texture to this deliberate expression of Chardonnay.

The hand-picked Chardonnay was carefully night harvested when the fruit reached maturity, offering distinct varietal flavors and wonderful acidity. The grapes were whole cluster pressed and the resulting juice settled for 2 days in a chilled stainless-steel tank. Fermentation began in tank before being transferred to neutral 75-gallon stainless-steel drums where it finished fermentation and aged sur lie for 6 months
