Harvest
The chardonnay was harvested on the mornings of October 1st and October 4th. Grapes were a rich golden color with small clusters and light production.
Waterproof Label
New label technology keeps our chardonnay labels properly adhered when wet, chilled or collecting condensation.
Aging and Bottling
After the clarification and final racking, we aged our 2018 Chardonnay in both oak and steel barrels a full 28 months to create the flavor profile of the wine before bottling.
Flint Glass
The color of the 2018 juice was such a lovely gold we highlighted it with clear flint glass for this limited production.
Clarification
A racking and clarification process takes place prior to passing through a final micron filter. The result is a clear wine free from sediment.

Branded DIAM 10 Cork
Our premium cork technology facilitates the aging process for delicate wines like our pinot noir. The branding elevates the presentation when serving.
Aging and Bottling
After the clarification and final racking, we aged our 2018 Pinot Noir in 25% new oak barrels a full 20 months. This exposure to limited new oak softens the wine without overpowering the natural flavors.
Antique Dark Green Glass
We upgraded our 2018 glass selection to a darker antique green glass to help protect the wine from light. Darker glass supports proper aging, even without a wine cellar.
Clarification
A racking and clarification process takes place prior to passing through a final micron filter. The result is a smooth, dark, ruby red wine free from sediment.
