2021 Perspective Chardonnay
In Stock
We call this wine “Perspective” because it offers a new insight into California Chardonnay. We appreciate the tropical fruit tones that evolve in the wines each year from our Napa Valley estate vineyard. No new oak was used, no secondary fermentations or other manipulations. We simply offer you a fresh taste from our vineyard … a new Perspective.
