Utterly elegant and classically old-school California. Grgich Hills sets the standard for beautiful California white wines as they have since the 1970’s. Today they are at the forefront of great farming and sustainability gaining the very difficult certification of ‘Regenerative Organic’ which goes beyond just eliminating chemicals- but creating a holistic farm estate treating their workers and their livestock fairly and supporting the community; no small feat! Their Napa Chardonnay comes predominantly from their American Canyon vineyards with ~20% from Carneros. The wine is fermented and aged in 50% new French oak barrels notes of creamy Meyer lemon orange marmalade and fresh yogurt. Young but already very enjoyable.
