Chardonnay

This vintage of the Far Coast Vineyard Chardonnay exhibits aromas of orange zest, yellow apple, dried fruits, and spice. The flavors of tangerine, mandarin orange, and quince are followed by a long textural finish of minerals and delicate fruit. - Jeff Stewart & Tiaan Lordan, Winemakers

"The aroma opens with a beautiful citrus medley of lemon and lime, framed by subtle white flower notes. On the palate this elegant but subtly powerful wine showcases lemon oil with nuances of salty ocean air. The combination of cool climate and poor soils builds the complex, layered texture and lively acidity" - Jeff Stewart and Tiaan Lordan, Winemakers

"The Seascape Vineyard Chardonnay shows keen acidity with Meyer lemon and exotic floral aromas backed by subtle saline nuances.  These complex aromatics are complemented by chamomile, Mandarin orange, and key lime flavors, with a lingering finish of green apple and underlying mineral flavors - a truly unique expression of terroir along the western edge of Sonoma County." - Jeff Stewart and Tiaan Lordan, Winemakers

True to its Carneros roots, the 2020 Sevens Bench Chardonnay carries the hallmark of the region – fruit intensity balanced by good acidity. The aromas are driven by classic lemon drop, Meyer lemon and lemongrass. That fruit style follows in the flavors, with the citrus focus carrying through with candied lemon drop balanced by the mineral and flint characteristics inherent to the region and the clonal selections. Barrel fermentation notes in the background add even more complexity to this elegant wine. —Jeff Stewart & Tiaan Lordan, Winemakers

"Coming from the Sebastopol Hills, the 2019 Chardonnay Jennifer's was aged for 13 months in 30% new French oak. Displaying aromas of fresh green apple and wet stone, the palate is concentrated and powerful, with a persistent long finish, and the feeling like a rod of energy in its mouthfeel. Drink 2024-2034." - Audrey Frick, jebdunnuck.com, Aug 2022

"The 2020 Fog Dance Chardonnay displays bright aromas of citrus oil, peach pit and orange blossom.  The flavors of mandarin orange, white peach and preserved lemon meld together with a mineral-driven finish, reflecting in cool Green Valley terroir." —Jeff Stewart and Tiaan Lordan, Winemakers

"This single-vineyard bottling from one of our most well-known estate vineyards offers aromas
of white peach, spiced pears, orange blossom, hazelnuts, and crushed rocks. Stone fruit, nectarine, and tangelo flavors are counterbalanced with a flinty, textural finish. " - Jeff Stewart and Tiaan Lordan, Winemakers
