2023 Chardonnay

The 2023 Pride Mountain Vineyards Chardonnay is a beautiful, generous expression of Napa Valley fruit at its freshest and finest. The 2023 growing season was long and even, which layered in profound complexity to this wine. Overflowing with aromas of juicy pear and nectarines, the first sip is dominated by mouthwatering minerality,  balanced by a delightful salinity, and accented by an intriguing touch of lime zest. While this wine is perfect for pairing with Thanksgiving dinner or fresh Dungeness crab, it will equally captivate you when enjoying a glass or two on its own.

    Precise aromas of lemon curd, flint, pastry and white flowers, The palate is medium-bodied with a creamy texture and focused acidity, giving notes of grapefruit, lime zest and orange blossoms. A nice balance between power and finesse. Drink or hold.
