Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes are gently whole-cluster pressed, chilled, and racked clean to a refrigerated stainless steel tank. The juice is slowly fermented at a cool temperature to enhance the varietal aromatics. They strive for a rich yet refreshing flavor profile, achieved through a combination of stainless steel and oak fermentation. The result is a fresh and vibrant wine that allows the natural flavor of the grape to shine.
From the winemaker – “Each vintage, we strive to craft a Chardonnay that strikes a perfect balance between rich and refreshing. Through the judicious use of oak, we seek to complement, not detract from, the gorgeous tropical fruit flavors that are the hallmark of District 7. Our 2011 vintage has aromas of tropical fruit and butterscotch that lead into a lively blend of pear, pineapple and citrus flavors.”
The chardonnay is a versatile wine with food, pairing particularly well with grilled seafood, roast chicken, or your favorite salad.
