2005 Chardonnay

Composition

This wine is composed of 100% Chardonnay.

Vineyards

We source our Chardonnay fruit from the Red Hen Ranch vineyard in Napa. The cooler temperatures, at the southern end of the valley, allow the chardonnay grapes to ripen evenly and maintain acidity.

Fermentation and Aging

This wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks, then immediately transferred to 60 gallon French Oak barrels, and aged for 10 months.

Production

120 Cases were produced in 2005.
The 2005 vintage was released in October of 2006.
