2023 Oak Knoll Chardonnay

$50+/bottle under the original label

There’s no other way to put this: we’ve sourced one of the country’s finest single-vineyard Chardonnays, from an internationally acclaimed producer in Napa Valley’s famed Oak Knoll AVA. It's only thanks to our deep sourcing relationships that we had the opportunity to get at this juice – it simply isn’t found on the open market, and the average wine shopper can’t get their hands on it without a wine club membership.

Golden on the pour, the nose is richly scented with classic apples and pears wrapped around a lemon rind core, kissed by butter and baking spice. On the palate, expertly weighted texture showcases medium acidity and beautiful structure, allowing the fruit to shine with perfectly integrated barrel spice components. The finish is delicately presented and persists with incredible length, with clean minerality dispersing florals and citrus before settling into a classic California umami of butter, brioche, and toast.
