Our 2021 vintage began with a late budbreak that evolved into an early bloom, while temperatures fluctuated throughout the spring. Harvest arrived early and flew by, with most fruit picked between late August and mid-September. Despite these fickle events, and the persistent drought affecting lower yields, fruit quality was stellar, concentrated, and richly perfumed. Resplendent in both concentration and depth, the grapes presented a beautiful acid balance and complexity that hinted at abundant treasures within. As we nurtured the wine along its journey through tanks and time, the promise of this exceptional harvest was realized, producing a lush, deeply aromatic wine of intense character. We eagerly anticipate the joy of sharing this gem from our exceptional 2021 vintage.
A classic California style Chardonnay, our Hedon is a hat-tip to this rich, full-bodied approach. This luxurious wine is composed of completely ripened fruit from select rows in our heralded Dijon and Old Wente blocks. Fragrant with butterscotch, toffee and vanilla aromatics on the nose, this wine is exceptionally expansive on the palate, with notes of pear, quince, mango and melon adorned with a light kiss of coconut and marzipan. The rich flavors ride the silky palate through to a sumptuous, sustained finish.
