New Arrivals/Restock

The journey of crafting our Chardonnay begins with carefully picking and hand-sorting the Chardonnay fruit from our estate vineyard. The harvested grapes then spend a night in our cold room, optimizing the conditions. Subsequently, the chilled grapes undergo a gentle pressing process, and the resulting juice is softly pumped into a stainless steel tank for cold settling. After the removal of heavy solids, the juice is transferred to a stainless steel fermentor, where it is inoculated for primary fermentation. Post this phase, the wine is moved to barrels, where it undergoes inoculation for malolactic fermentation, with periodic stirring to enrich its depth and mouthfeel. The 2021 Sea Smoke Chardonnay is aged for a total of 10 months before bottling, and it undergoes no fining and no filtration, preserving its natural essence. Wine Characteristics: The 2021 Sea Smoke Chardonnay is an epitome of elegance, offering delightful aromas of mango, honeysuckle, fresh-cut pear, and honeydew. These aromas beautifully intertwine with nectarine and a subtle nuttiness, creating a focused mid-palate. The refreshing cool climate acidity from our estate vineyard accentuates the overall tasting experience, making this Chardonnay truly exceptional.
