With the main 2.5-acre part of the vineyard, planted in 1997, now in full swing, some of the newer 2014 plantings on the next-door slope have started to come on board, and the effect is WOW.

It is one of the must-see attractions in Northern California, if not the entire state. The longstanding winemaking team of Ann Colgin, Allison Tauziet and Bordeaux consultant Dr. Alain Raynaud has produced some magnificent wines over the years (the 2001s, 2002s, 2005s, 2007s and 2008s) as well as amazing efforts in 2009, 2010 and 2012. There are three Bordeaux blend offerings, one from their Tychson Hill estate vineyard off Highway 29, north of St. Helena, and the second, the IX Estate blend. The Cariad is fashioned from a blend of grapes purchased from a number of David Abreu-s well-known and highly respected vineyards. There is also a fourth wine, the IX Estate Syrah, which is often a dead-ringer for a great Northern Rhone. In 2010, March and early April were very cold, but normal conditions persisted over the summer with no heat spikes, and September and October were ideally warm.

The grapes were grown organically at their American Canyon and Carneros vineyards, where the coolness allows the grapes to develop complex flavors while maintaining a pleasing natural acidity. They do not allow the Chardonnay to undergo malolactic fermentation. This preserves the wine's crispness and acidity to balance its concentrated fruit. The full-bodied, elegant Grgich Hills Chardonnay has fresh aromas of acacia and citrus flowers, honey and a touch of mineral.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brix26","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":21199981766,"sku":"6721987398","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/3826\/products\/grgich_hills_2010_chard_9a9aaf9b-f686-4263-b083-7622c6dcd178.jpeg?v=1771365268"},{"product_id":"jam-cellars-butter-chardonnay","title":"Butter Chardonnay 2022, California","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eA phenomenal buy in California Chardonnay!\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e One of the fastest selling Chardonnays we have ever carried.

With the name of their wine label being called JaM, they employed the help of winemaker Rob Lloyd (who spent 8 years at Rombauer) to produce a rich, jammy style of Cabernet. Well, that wine was a huge hit, and since Rob knew a thing or two about making Chardonnays, it only made sense that this white wine should be called \"Butter\". As the name implies, this is a rich, buttery style of Chardonnay laced with aromas of baked lemons and mandarin oranges mingle with a hint of spice and smoke. The palate begins with crisp pineapple, bright citrus and ripe melon while a soft creaminess rounds out the finish. This Chardonnay is ready for immediate enjoyment and is suited to a wide variety of foods including white fish, smoked salmon and creamy pasta dishes. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brix26","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":21199984710,"sku":"6721989510","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/3826\/products\/jam_2014_butter_chard_0b4d7e7d-59b4-4e51-9540-3c1fc64852eb.jpeg?v=1771365268"},{"product_id":"kanzler-chardonnay-russian-river-valley","title":"Kanzler 2020 \"Walker Station\" Chardonnay, Russian River Valley","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLimited new Chardonnay from the owners of the legenday Kanzler Vineyard in the Russian River Valley.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKanzler Vineyard’s 2020 Russian River Valley Chardonnay has a bouquet anchored by fig and nectarine with nuances of crème brûlée, papaya and cinnamon.

While the wines come from as wide a range of top terroirs as Sonoma can provide, interestingly nearly all of the Chardonnays are produced from a proprietary selection of Wente clones taken from a Larry Hyde block in the early 1980s. All the vineyard-designate Chardonnays are produced in precisely the same manner, meaning the differences between them are almost exclusively down to the differences in terroir. And as readers will see from my notes, the differences are striking.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kistler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":21199992134,"sku":"6721994246","price":199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/3826\/products\/kistler_mccrea_2013_chard.jpg?v=1771365268"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/3826\/collections\/cakebread-cellars_sauvignon-blanc-north-coast-2-1779551445099.jpg?v=1786651838","url":"https:\/\/www.brix26.com\/collections\/customer-favorites.oembed?page=17","provider":"Brix26 Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
