Screen Door Chardonnay
By Screen Door
With this Screen Door Chardonnay you can expect a bright, vibrant, yellow color in the glass, and distinct aromatics of white flowers, lemon scone, papaya, lemon lime, jasmine, and apple blossoms.
Our winemakers affectionately say this wine has ‘juevos’ thanks to its split-aging; spending time in concrete eggs, neutral French oak and new French barrels. The result is a mouthfeel and flavor both rich and full, with a smooth entry and bright citrus acidity that sticks with you.
You’ll appreciate the minerality throughout the taste, and savor the perfectly creamy finish of this Screen Door Chardonnay. Pair it with good food and better company.
- Region: 100% Russian River Valley, Calif. USA
- Year: 2022
- Barrel Aging: 11 months aging in 1/3 concrete egg, 1/3 neutral French Oak and 1/3 in new French Barrels
- Alcohol by Volume: 14.1%
- PH: 3.4
- Tasting Notes: Aromatic, perfumed nose reminiscent of white flowers, lemon scone, papaya, lemon lime, jasmine, and apple blossoms. The palate is long, round and full-flavored, with balanced acidity and citrus flavors, scents of white peach and orchard fruits like apple and pear.
