NOTES FROM THE WINEMAKER: We source our Cabernet grapes from the Central Coast for their deeply concentrated flavor, dark characteristics and distinct acidity. During the 2018 growing season, spring temperatures were particularly cool until summer hot spells arrived, sending the growing season into high activity. Despite the warm temperatures, harvest began 10 days later than in recent years. Rain in early October had no effect on the grapes. The 2018 harvest produced higher-than-usual yields of exceptional fruit with deep color and concentration. After an early morning harvest, the grapes fermented rapidly in the winery with three daily pump-overs to extract color and flavor. Once fermented to dry, we pressed the must and completed malolactic fermentation on French oak to impart a soft, round mouthfeel. Each lot was tasted daily during fermentation and specifically selected to craft this layered wine.

The Edna Valley Vineyards V19 Buttery Chardonnay strikes the perfect balance between ripe, juicy fruit and a decadently creamy mouthfeel. Aromas of caramel, juicy apple and a dash of cinnamon creates a decadently buttery Chardonnay. Sourced from the Central Coast, our Chardonnay offers terroir-driven minerality with notes of fresh-sliced pear and pineapple. The Chardonnay grapes were grown in the Central Coast, known for long hang times on the vine and complex flavor. To create a creamy, rich texture for our Buttery Chardonnay, we used malolactic fermentation and aged the wine in a combination of French and American oak. The 2019 vintage experienced a cooler-than-normal and breezy summer. Spring rains were welcome and provided us with healthy vineyards. Yields from the 2019 harvest were lucrative, producing white grapes with high acidity and concentrated flavor.
