| Description: | Anderson Valley, nestled in the rolling hills of the coastal Mendocino region has become one of California's most distinctive wine regions, with Cerise being one of the most preeminent vineyards in the last quarter-century. Rising from 587 to 1,620 feet, its steep, unforgiving terrain results in thought-provoking wines that combine a rustic spirit with stunning energy and opulence. Originally planted with Pinot Noir in 1997, a selection of vines were grafted to Chardonnay in 2013. Grown on a south-west facing slope, this striking expression of Anderson Valley Chardonnay comes from the coolest section of Cerise Vineyard. The 2019 Cerise Chardonnay came in at perfect ripeness, allowing a completely hands-off approach from press to bottle. This delectable wine displays bright, captivating aromas of white peach, orange blossom, and fresh ginger that intertwine with a radiant minerality. There is an intriguing dichotomy of richness and acidity on the nuanced palate that comingle, creating a beautiful, hypnotic Chardonnay. Vineyard Cerise Vineyard. Clones Wente.
