About

The 2021 Dark Horse Chardonnay is a full-bodied, silky white wine from California. Our Chardonnay opens with aromas of ripe peach, mango, pineapple and honeysuckle. Bright notes of white nectarine, lemon curd, guava and honey play on the palate before finishing with notes of toasty vanilla oak.

Viticulture Notes
Our winemaker, Beth Liston, selected the grapes for this Chardonnay from premier vineyards throughout California. The 2021 growing season was dry with budbreak in early March. Harvest began in early August. The resulting grapes were picked at the optimal ripeness while still maintaining their natural acidity.

Winemaking Notes
We picked the grapes for our 2021 Chardonnay during the cooler morning and evening hours of August. Fermentation took place at low to moderate temperatures of 55-62°F. Our winemaker carefully selected aromatic yeast to intensify the natural aromatics and enhance the fruit characteristics. After fermentation, the wines were stored in stainless steel tanks to preserve their natural acidity and balance.
