Varietals:  Chardonnay

Appellation:  Russian River Valley

Winemaker:  Kent Rosenblum

Winemaking Techniques:  Hand harvested in early September 2008, the grapes for this beautiful Chardonnay are from the Lone Oak Vineyard in the Russian River Valley of Sonoma County. At the winery, the fruit was whole-cluster pressed and racked to new French & American oak barrels where it sat sur lees until the end of July 2009, when it was bottled.  

Cases Produced:  643

Tasting Notes:  A rich and complex Chardonnay, this wine exhibits a wonderful mineral character as well as ripe pineapple, with hints of mango and vanilla in the bouquet.
