Vineyard Character: Sunset Vineyard was recently purchased by the Garvey family, who we have had the pleasure of working with for many years. Located in the Congress Valley region of Carneros, on Sunset Lane, this vineyard’s soils, and certain bright fruit elements in the grapes it produces, are reminiscent of another great Carneros site—Hyde Vineyard. The shallow Haire loam soils at this drop-dead gorgeous vineyard are planted to Robert Young and clone 4, and as a result the wine from this site delivers almost hypnotic tropical fruit and narcissus aromas.<BR><BR>Tasting Notes: Like walking through a tropical garden, this wine exudes exotic aromatics of lily, mango and narcissus, accentuated by layers of cinnamon spice and carnation. Though rich and evocative, these aromas also reveal a more delicate side before segueing to a refreshing and structured palate that integrates tropical fruit and custard notes with spicy oak, good acidity and sophisticated minerality. <BR><BR>Winemaking: 100% Chardonnay; Whole cluster pressed; Multi-yeast fermentations (wild & cultured); Sur lie aged with weekly stirring; 100% malo-lactic fermentation in barrel<BR>60% new Burgundian French oak barrels; Bottled without filtration</P>
