2021 EX Unoaked Chardonnay
In Stock
Our 2021 EX Chardonnay comes from the original 37-year old, own-rooted Clone 4 planted on our estate vineyard. It is fermented (primary only) and aged for 3 months in stainless steel before being bottled on-site. The resulting unoaked wine is bright and direct, yet deceptively rich. The nose has a subtle fruit notes and flavors offer guava, lemon and peach. There is a noticeable but balanced acidity with a full mouthfeel.
