Description
As a blend of the best Chardonnay vineyard sites, the Estate bottling is one of the most compelling illustrations of the mountain. Balancing aromatic intrigue, texture and the Mayacamas’ signature structural elements into a pure reflection of the vintage. This wine exhibits honeysuckle and orange creamsicle with subtle salinity, finishing long with notes of toffee and a generous palate.

RECENT TASTING NOTES

A sense of balance is what first comes to mind with the Stonestreet Estate Chardonnay. Sourced mainly from vineyards between 1,600 and 1,800 feet, right where the inversion layer settles each morning, this wine captures the nuance of elevation. Aged for 10 months in 15% light-toast new French oak, with a portion fermented and aged in stainless steel, the blend exhibits both texture and lift. The nose offers a mix of citrus and freshly ripe nectarines. The palate exhibits a subtle richness, with notes of candied ginger and chamomile tea, carried by vibrant acidity through a long, focused finish.
