About This Wine
Chardonnay musque clone grapes are unique for the delicate floral notes they express. Most years, blocks planted to these clones are used as part of our blends, but the quality from the 2021 vintage inspired us to bottle this special release highlighting the distinctive clonal characters. Wines were fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks to accentuate the floral and fruity notes. The blend was then aged for 3 years on the yeast, contributing an elegant toastiness.
