Winemaking and Analysis

• The 2020 Chardonnay is a great example of the stellar growing conditions in that
year. Hot and sunny, with favorable weather all season, it was a wonderful vintage.
• Desired style was unoaked and mineral driven, light and fruity, a pure expression of
the grape.
• Fruit sourced entirely from our Avonport Vineyard.
• Gently pressed and fermented long and slow at very low temperatures.
• 100% stainless steel fermentation expresses minerality, freshness, and an apple and
pear forward character. No malolactic fermentation was used.
• 700 cases produced
