What to Expect
Chardonnay is America's most popular grape and with good reason. Made in styles that range from steely, mineral laced wines with crisp green apple fruit to wines that are buttery, rich, and laden with tropical fruits, there is a Chardonnay that will appeal to every palate. Chardonnay is most closely associated with France's Burgundy region and California's Northern valleys though it has proven successful around the globe.
Winemakers Notes
ZD's 2006 Chardonnay delivers traditional "ZD Style". Our pursuit of richness and balance is achieved through careful selection of quality vineyards from California's esteemed cool growing regions including Napa, Sonoma, Monterey, and Santa Barbara counties. A unique winemaking approach of cold barrel fermentation in toasted American oak barrels gives this wine a deep opulence with aromas of fresh tropical fruit and a hint of vanilla and coconut. No malo-lactic fermentation results in a preservation of crisp acidity that gives the wine a clean finish in addition read more...

"Our 2002 California Chardonnay is packed with forward, ripe aromas of pineapple, apricot and lime with subtle floral notes reminiscent of orange blossom. On the palate, the lush pineapple and citrus flavors integrate beautifully with hints of vanilla, coconut, and toasted nuts. A long, cool fermentation in toasted American oak barrels, and no malo-lactic fermentation, preserve the wonderful, complex fruit and natural acidity that gives this wine its richness and delicate balance. This wine is a true testament to ZD’s consistent and unique style." Chris Pisani, Winemaker
