Our “Limited Release” Chardonnay comes from the Estates of both the Livermore Valley and Arroyo Secco, Monterey. It is a tribute to the remarkable journey that began in 1883 by the Wente family and continues to this day. The wine was aged for 16 months in new/neutral American oak barrels and also partly in French oak. 20% of the wine was aged in stainless steel tanks. The wine underwent Bâttonage with the turning of the Lie, approximately 1-2 times per month.
