CHALK HILL ESTATE CHARDONNAY 2006

CHALK HILL'S POTENTIAL FOR GREAT CHARDONNAY was discovered early and it became one of the initial plantings. The oldest, Founder's Block dates back to the establishment of the winery, in 1972, and remains a keystone in the estate's Chardonnay program.

In order to draw out its true varietal character, and imprint the Chalk Hill Estate signature, the winemaking regime always includes: whole cluster pressing, natural yeast and malolactic fermentations in barrel, sur lie aging (with batonage) in French oak, and unfiltered bottling- tried-and-true Burgundian techniques.

Wine Enthusiast 92 points: "Here's a chard that's ultra-rich in flavor, yet firm in acids which makes for great balance and harmony. Fully dry, it tasted of grilled pineapples, nectartines, and buttered toast with honey and cinnamon."

Wine Advocate 90 points: "A strong success in a challenging vintage, the 2006 Chardonnay reveals notes of spicy oak interwoven with tropical fruits, citrus butter and orange oil. Full- bodied, layered, fresh and lively, it can be enjoyed over the next 1-2 years."

Winery Notes: "The 2006 Chalk Hill Estate Chardonnay is creamy and complex, openingup to reveal multi-layers of intricate aromas and flavors as it breathes in the glass. Barrel fermented with native yeasts and bottled without fining or filtration, this wine experienced a gentle and natural progression from grape to bottle. Aromas of white flowers, ginger, and white peach preceed a slight flintiness and fresh cream. The palate combines Asian pear, jasmine blossom, and a sur-lie creaminess with and earthy, wet-stone minerality."
