2023 Wrath 3-Clone Chardonnay
In Stock
Expansive and rich, this blend shows off the longer growing environment of our area and how it yields chardonnay with deep, layered flavors. This golden-hued Chardonnay offers aromas evoking pear, apple, and baking spices. The palate blends pear, apple, oak, and a hint of butterscotch; followed by a long finish with bright acidity.

Vineyard Notes
Our Estate San Saba Vineyard is sheltered in a nook just below the Santa Lucia Highlands AVA, roughly 25 miles southeast of the town of Monterey. Our climate is heavily influenced by the morning fog and afternoon winds from the nearby Pacific Ocean. This is a cool site with little rainfall and one of the longest growing seasons in the world. Our unusual climate allows us to produce ripe, concentrated wines of exceptional balance.
