One of the most finicky yet rewarding grapes to grow, Pinot Noir is a labor of love for many. However, the greatest red wines of?Burgundy?prove that it is unquestionably worth the effort. In fact, it is the only red variety permitted in Burgundy. Highly reflective of its terroir, Pinot Noir prefers calcareous soils and a cool climate, requires low yields to achieve high quality and demands a lot of attention in the vineyard and winery. It retains even more glory as an important component of?Champagne?as well as on its own in?France?s?Loire Valley?and?Alsace?regions. This sensational grape enjoys immense international success, most notably growing in?Oregon,?California?and?New Zealand?with smaller amounts in?Chile,?Germany?(as Sp?tburgunder) and?Italy?(as Pinot Nero).

Tasting Notes
This is certainly the most complex Chardonnay that we have produced. Honeysuckle, apricot, pineapple, and citrus all jump out of the glass. Once on the palate the wine comes into balance as the acidity takes center stage and brings the Chardonnay to a refreshing finish. Aging in 25% new French oak has added hints of clove and cinnamon and brown sugar. Extended time in barrel on lees has resulted in a more complex, yet richer palate whilst still retaining the elegance we expect from our chardonnay.
