This beautifully playful Chardonnay from Caldwell Vineyard opens with inviting aromas of freshly baked croissant, warm baking spices, and the subtle sweetness of marzipan. On the palate, it reveals layers of ripe stone fruit—juicy peach and apricot—intertwined with a delicate touch of wax and nutmeg, adding complexity and depth. A whisper of honeycomb sweetness mingles with the essence of cantaloupe, creating a harmonious balance of richness and freshness.
The wine finishes with a long-lasting, succulent sensation, showcasing elegant oak that enhances the fruit’s vibrancy. Notes of candied pecan and mineral undertones provide a refined, mouthwatering finish that lingers, leaving a lasting impression of sophistication and finesse.
A beautiful expression of Chardonnay—playful yet poised, with a finish that captivates.
VINEYARD
WINEMAKING
The grapes were harvested in the early morning hours to preserve their freshness and vibrant acidity. After being gently pressed, the juice was fermented in oak barrels over a period of six weeks, with malolactic fermentation occurring simultaneously to enhance the wine’s smooth, round texture. Weekly bâtonnage was performed, stirring the lees to add richness and complexity. The result is a beautifully balanced wine with layers of flavor and a graceful, lingering finish.
