Tasting Notes
Inviting notes of preserved lemon, honeysuckle, and jasmine reveal themselves at first swirl. A lush compilation of peach preserves, vanilla, hazelnuts, and toasted brioche add further layers to the complex aromas. The palate is round and full, but perfectly balanced with a refreshing lift of bright, natural acidity.
Vineyard Notes
Just four miles up Westside Road from our winery, the 40-acre Westside Farms vineyard sits along the banks of the winding Russian River. The Chardonnay grown here is a particular favorite of ours. The vines were planted in 1989 to Chardonnay Clone 4. With deep, river-deposited sandy loam soils, the cool evenings prolong the ripening process, yielding consistently elegant, intense fruit.
