Sweeny Canyon Chardonnay
This release marks the fifteenth consecutive bottling from this unique and 31 year old site with which we have worked since our inception in 1996. Planted on its own roots in 1980 to a Wente selection and dry farmed in a mixture of river silt and diatomaceous earth. "Vivid yellow-gold. High-pitched aromas of fresh orchard fruits, minerals, honeysuckle and white pepper show serious power and focus. Deep, palate-staining and precise, with impressive thrust to its pear and Meyer lemon flavors. Picks up smoke and iodine qualities with air, along with suggestions of licorice and
chamomile. Rich but lively and incisive, with superb finishing clarity and lingering florality. This just refuses to let up, which is no problem for me. Wow!"
