Technical Details
Guenoc Valley
Guenoc Valley lies sixty miles north of San Francisco - a breathtaking panorama of oak-strewn grasslands, rolling green hills, craggy outcroppings and perfect volcanic cinder cones, painted with the shimmer of a dozen azure lakes. The 21,349-acre Langtry Estate is one of the Largest contiguous private land holdings in California, and among the most beautiful.
Tasting notes
The 2014 growing season was consistent and long overall. Warm summer temperatures during the day kept the acids high while still bringing the fruit to optimal maturity. The 2014 Chardonnay showcases alluring aromas of ripe peach, spiced apple and caramel. It has a rich texture and fruit-forward
personality complemented by intense flavors of Fuji apple and pear with subtle hints of vanilla cream.
