* 2023 SCRIBE Estate Chardonnay
Yuzu, Lemon Verbena, Limestone
Scribe's Estate vineyard on the southwest-facing slope of Arrowhead Mountain in the southern Mayacamas Volcanic Range. For this bottling we harvested Clone 6 and Washington, planted in volcanic tuff and local Huichica Loam soil.
* 2023 SCRIBE Kiser Chardonnay
Apricot, Sea Salt, Grapefruit Zest
The Kiser vineyard sits in the heart of Sonoma Valley, just 5 miles away from the SCRIBE property. Set on a combination of Zamora and Huichica loam soils, this property was originally planted with vines in the 1970s. These original plantings included cuttings of "Shot Wente" clone Chardonnay, a cultivar developed in California back in the early 1900s.
* 2023 SCRIBE Skin Fermented Chardonnay
White Peach, Orange Blossom, Tarragon
A vivid interpretation of California Chardonnay, fermented on the skins for up to 90 days in concrete eggs. This winemaking process adds texture and structure which balance the pronounced flavor and aromatic profile of the 809 Chardonnay clone.
