Felta Chardonnay

Felta Chardonnay

This Chardonnay takes its name from the alluvial soil on our estate called Felta whose gravelly texture and naturally balanced nutrients allow for optimum growing conditions for Chardonnay. This wine is made with Clone 4 Chardonnay, and each wine barrel is unique, from variations in the barrels themselves to the particular native yeast population that ferments the juice in that barrel.

Tasting Notes
The 2022 Felta Chardonnay is defined by its bright acidity and mineral finish. This wine displays desirable layers of baked pear, toasted oak, peach, lemon zest, and vanilla cream, enticing sip after sip.
