2019 marks our third vintage producing Chardonnay from the famed Reuling Vineyard, located just off Highway 116 between Graton and Forestville. This wine is rich and distinctive. A unique “suitcase” Montrachet clone of Chardonnay takes center stage here, and, when combined with the exceptional growing conditions of 2019, demonstrates balanced acidity and rich, complex flavors in the finished wine. “Lots of baked apple, orchard fruits, baking spices, and toasted bread notes emerge from the 2019 Chardonnay Reuling Vineyard. A rich, medium to full-bodied, beautifully balanced Chardonnay, it brings ample fruit yet stays grounded by a solid spine of acidity.” – Jeb Dunnuck

"The Reuling Vineyard is located in the Sonoma Coast AVA, and is planted to mostly Pinot Noir with just 2 acres planted to Chardonnay. The resultant, salty Chardonnay is beautifully textured with outstanding length and gobs of orchard fruits that collide with minerals and the wonderfully salty tones. " - Owen Bargreen

A rich, medium to full-bodied, beautifully balanced Chardonnay, it brings ample fruit yet stays grounded by a solid spine of acidity. It benefits from air today yet should easily evolve for 7-8 years." - Jeb Dunnuck
