Special Reserve Chardonnay 2001

Special Reserve Chardonnay label

Chardonnay grapes from our oldest vines were used in our Special Reserve Chardonnay. It was barrel fermented in new French oak and aged there on the lees for twelve months. This wine was neither fined nor filtered before bottling. Lush and full-bodied, it will continue to gain complexity as it ages and can be enjoyed through 2007.
