Hartford Court Chardonnay 2023, 750ml

This wine is sourced from small vineyards throughout the Russian River Valley AVA, including Estate properties like Jennifer’s, Fog Dance, Bellflower, and Arrendell, as well as neighboring vineyards.

Winemaking: All grapes are hand harvested at night and undergo whole cluster pressing. Fermentation occurs with indigenous yeast in French oak barrels, 24% of which are new. The wine is aged for 9 months with weekly lees stirring through malolactic fermentation, and it undergoes no fining and minimal filtration.

Tasting Note:
This wine offers aromas of white flowers, citrus oil, and apricot, with flavors of fresh nectarine, lemon drop, and grilled pineapple, followed by subtle mineral notes and a hint of crystallized ginger.
