Chardonnay

"The 2023 Seascape Vineyard Chardonnay skyrockets with intense notes of lime blossoms, fresh pineapple, and passion fruit, followed by nuances of struck flint and nutmeg. The medium to full-bodied palate is tightly wound yet wonderfully expressive with great tension and texture. Stacked with tropical fruit layers, it finishes long and tangy. 266 cases were made." - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, The Wine Palate, July 2025

"The 2023 Stone Cote Vineyard Chardonnay skips out with notes of juicy white peaches, orange blossoms, and lemon curd, plus nuances of crème brûlée and whipped cream. The medium-bodied palate is so, so satiny with a lively line cutting through the intense citrus and orchard fruit layers, finishing long and creamy. 290 cases were made." - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, The Wine Palate, July 2025

"The 2023 Fog Dance Vineyard Chardonnay waltzes in with showy notes of honeysuckle, candied ginger, and honeydew melon, leading to hints of apple pie and cashew butter. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers a decadent oiliness to the texture with concentrated orchard fruit layers and beautifully knit acidity, finishing long with a spicy kick. 212 cases were made." — Lisa Perrotti-Brown, The Wine Palate, July 2025

"The 2022 Sevens Bench Vineyard Chardonnay sashays out with gregarious notes of apple butter, ripe peaches, and pear tart followed by nuances of lemon drops and honeysuckle with a touch of lime blossom. The medium to full-bodied palate has a crisp backbone and decadently oily texture with a long chalky finish... —Lisa Perrotti-Brown, The Wine Independent, April 2024

"From Russian River Valley, the 2023 Chardonnay Jennifer's Vineyard is a bright golden/yellow color and offers ripe notes of dark wet stones, grilled pineapples, baking spice, honeyed citrus, and candied ginger. The full-bodied palate delivers persistent driving tension and acidity, with the power you expect to see from the rich ripeness of the Russian River Valley but the tension and acidity from cooler sites. It has a powerful feel and is built to last over the coming 10-12 years." - Audrey Frick, jebdunnuck.com, July 2025

"Medium golden yellow, the 2023 Chardonnay Far Coast Vineyard is from vines grown at 600-1000 feet elevation on the West Sonoma Coast. The nose is more savory and more coastal, with notes of sea spray, crushed shells, zesty Meyer lemon, and green pear. The palate is focused and medium-bodied, with a ripe core as well as hints of sweet vanilla and spice coming through on the finish. Give it another year in bottle to come together and drink over the following 8-10 years. " - Audrey Frick, jebdunnuck.com, July 2025

This Chardonnay exhibits aromas of citrus zest, Fuji apple and chamomile aromatics. The flavors move towards whitepeach, apple skin, lively acidity and a firm structure that expresses its mountain sourcing. - Jeff Stewart & Tiaan Lordan, Winemakers

This Chardonnay exhibits aromas of grilled citrus and pineapple, opening with time into dried flowers and lemon verbena. Vivid flavors of citrus, pear, and a focused texture are driven by the cool conditions and naturally low-yielding vines from this unique growing site.

The wine has hints of lemongrass, pink grapefruit, quince, and wet stones. The wines' flavors follow with citrus, tamarind, exotic fruits and a lively, textural finish. - Jeff Stewart & Tiaan Lordan, Winemakers
