Chalk Hill is defined by its warm climate and volcanic white ash that characterize its soils and give it its name. Our Chardonnay reflects that warmth and the moderating evening coolness that allows this wine to fully develop and express itself. We age our Chardonnay sur lie in French Oak barrels for complexity, structure and smooth overall mouth feel.
