Our 2024 Napa Valley Reserve Chardonnay opens with rich aromas of ripe pear and baked apple, layered with toasted hazelnut and a hint of vanilla bean from extended barrel aging. Notes of honeysuckle and warm brioche add depth and complexity as the wine breathes.
On the palate, the Reserve shows a fuller, more concentrated expression — creamy texture and a generous core of stone fruit balanced by bright acidity that keeps the wine focused rather than heavy. A long, polished finish with lingering notes of toasted oak and citrus pith reflects the added care and selection that define this Reserve bottling.
