Owner-winemaker Marie-Laure Ammons has turned out a lush, creamy-textured 2023 Chardonnay Bacigalupi Vineyard. All Wente selection, fermented and matured a year in mostly older oak (some new French oak is used, and there's a clay egg component as well), toasted hazelnuts accent melon and peach notes on the nose, while the medium-bodied palate seems nearly weightless, finishing with a gently textured finish. 114 cases produced.

The 2023 Chardonnay Bacigalupi Vineyard pops with notes of ripe grapefruit, lemon tart, and white peaches, plus hints of lime blossoms and wet pebbles. The medium-bodied palate is tight-knit and refreshing with a silky texture and mineral-laced finish.
