RODGERS CREEK VINEYARD

Our Chardonnay hails from Rodgers Creek Vineyard, nestled between the towns of Sonoma and Petaluma in the Petaluma Gap AVA. Situated at 300 feet above sea level with chalky volcanic soil, this vineyard has steep inclines, a Western exposure, morning fog and the cooling influence of the nearby Pacific Ocean. 

VINIFICATION

The grapes for our 2023 Chardonnay were harvested on October 20th, 2023 and underwent fermentation in stainless steel tanks, with a partial malolactic conversion. Following fermentation, the wine was aged for 5 months, with 97.5% in stainless steel and 2.5% in once-used French oak barrels. Our production volume is 24 cases.

TASTING NOTES

You can expect notes of lemon curd, lime pith, green apple, dried Roman chamomile, wet stone, and a touch of salty minerality. This medium-light bodied wine is a true reflection of the terroir from which it comes.
