Chardonnay is most closely associated with France's Burgundy region and California's Northern valleys though it has proven successful around the globe.

WA 90pts. - WS 90pts. - Winemaker Notes - About one mile from Dry Creek, this thirteen-acre vineyard benefits from temperatures, that are a bit cooler than most of the appellation. It makes wine that's very aromatic with nice bright fruit, pear and lemon and a bit of minerality on the finish.
