Tasting notes
The 2017 Chardonnay Bear Point Vineyard gives up bolds peach cobbler, clotted cream and applesauce scents with nuances of toasted almonds and honeycomb. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a lovely satiny texture plus a touch of phenolic grip and is packed with stone fruit and honeyed flavors, finishing with a touch of spiciness to the finish. 304 cases produced.

More brioche, smoked earth, stone fruits, and toasted spice notes emerge from the 2017 Chardonnay Bear Point Vineyard, and it too is medium to full-bodied, with bright acidity and a gorgeous texture. Coming all from a site in the Alexander Valley and aged 11 months in 46% new French oak, it’s another classic, incredibly high-quality wine from this team.
The 2017 Chardonnay Bear Point Vineyard is one of the more airy, weightless wines in the range. Lemon confit, white flowers, marzipan and apricot are front and center. Racy and pliant, with soft curves, the Bear Point will drink well right out of the gate.
