Cuvaison's Carneros Chardonnay comes from our own estate in the southern part of Napa Valley. This cool climate vineyard allows us nearly perfect conditions year after year to produce world class Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot and Syrah. Controlling all farming aspects within our own vineyard gives Cuvaison an advantage in producing the best quality fruit therefore minimizing over manipulation at the winery. Winemaker Steven Rogstad sums it up best, "My style and philosophy are based on expressing the unique character of our estate grapes and doing as little as possible to them. When one has such wonderful fruit to work with, that should be ones emphasis." Cuvaison's 2007 Chardonnay is brimming with pure stone fruit characters, cleansing acidity and muted spice tones. This classic Carneros Chardonnay boasts both richness and minerality. Color: Bright, light straw with crisp golden highlights Aroma: Orange and acacia blossom, lime peel and citrus fruit Taste: Apricot, pear and nectarine with a hint of clove, vanillin and allspice
