Tasting Notes
The salivation factor is high in this aromatic Russian River Valley Chardonnay! An airy peach blossom and nectarine perfume leads to a palate layered with notes of fresh orchard peaches, lemon peel and cool minerality underscored by subtle baking spice and toasted oak accents. Vibrant natural acidity adds brightness and lift to the full, juicy finish.
The 2022 vintage exhibits enchanting aromas of key lime pie and lemon zest.
Winemaker Notes
EnRoute Chardonnay, Russian River Valley, “Brumaire” is named for the fog that gently envelops the vineyards in Russian River Valley, creating the perfect climate to nurture our fruit to ideal ripeness.
A discrete group of select Chardonnay clones and growing areas combine to produce the “Brumaire” blend. The Wente clone benefits from the warmth of the northernmost vineyard along Westside Road and contributes an oily texture and tropical notes. The Rued clone, grown in the cool climate of Green Valley, brings beautiful perfume and floral notes to the wine. The Heritage clone provides notes of pear and citrus from a vineyard cultivated in Goldridge sandy loam along Vine Hill Road in Sebastopol.
Grape Varietal: 100% Chardonnay
