Tasting notes
The 2021 Chardonnay Sevens Bench Vineyard was barrel fermented and matured for 14 months in 14% new French oak. It has open, inviting aromas of yellow peach, panna cotta, honey, pie crust and chamomile. The medium-bodied palate is concentrated and layered, its generosity balanced by tangy acidity and flinty tones, and it has a long, textural finish. It deserves 2-3+ years in bottle. 316 cases produced.

A more opulent style with a richer golden hue, the 2021 Chardonnay Sevens Bench Vineyard takes on more tropical ripe fruits in its notes of golden pineapple, baking spice, and orange zest. Full-bodied, with a rich yet clean, viscous texture, ripe peach, honeysuckle, and citrus oil, it’s long on the palate and has nice balance. Drink it now or over the next 6-8 years.
