2025 Chardonnay

Chardonnay calls to be harvested on long, radiant days well before the season’s swan song. Heat is a near certainty, while thunderheads and cold snaps seem a distant concept. The fruit itself embodies this beaming optimism. Upon harvest, we collect thousands of tiny golden suns to be gently pressed, on a mission to bottle endless summer. The resulting wine, handled minimally in the cellar, will glow with vibrant fruit for many seasons to come.

Our Chardonnay reflects our founder Henry Cornell’s passion for crisp and mineral-laden white wines reminiscent of those highly regarded from Burgundy. Aromas of lemon mousse, white jasmine, and early spring stone fruits are complemented by subtle notes of crushed oyster shells and sun-warmed river rocks, evoking idyllic summer ocean side lunches. The palate is invigorated with vibrant, mouthwatering acidity and refined texture, inviting another sip.
