WINEMAKING

After whole cluster pressing, the Chardonnay Napa Valley 2021was barrel fermented in
100% French oak, 33% new barrels. Partial malolactic fermentation provides a richer and
fuller aspect to the wine that was then aged in the same barrel composition for 19 months
with periodic stirring of the lees. To soften the impact of oak and preserve freshness, the
winemakers selected larger puncheons for 30% of the barrels.

VINEYARD SOURCES

Vineyards in the southern portion of the Napa Valley that include the cool-climate subappellations of Carneros, Mount Veeder and Coombsville provided the majority of grapes
for this wine. Breezes from San Pablo Bay are particularly helpful for cooling the Carneros
and Coombsville vineyards, while higher altitudes provide cooler conditions in the Mount
Veeder vineyard. In addition to cool growing conditions, each of these vineyards possess
unique soils planted to a variety of clonal selections which add complexity to this classic
expression of Napa Valley Chardonnay.

VINTAGE NOTES

Late winter rains followed by ideal spring growing conditions set the stage for the 2021
vintage. Mild temperatures punctuated this drought year with only a few heat spikes
during the summer months. Early flavor development in our white grapes, coupled with
higher acidity levels, allowed us to begin harvest at the end of August with grapes showing
exceptional balance and moderate brix levels. The ideal weather of 2021 and overall lower
yields produced wines that offer exciting, complex aromatics and flavors.
