Josh Cellars Chardonnay

"Medium-bodied with flavors of fresh-cut pineapple and ripe pear. A portion of the wine was aged on oak to impart subtle notes of toasted oak and vanilla on the finish." —winemaker

"With a brilliant, silver- and straw-yellow hue, this Chardonnay rises out of the glass with intense apple, ripe pear and sweet lemon drop scents. These aromas are complemented by toasty oak, spice and butter notes from barrel and malolactic fermentation. The palate is bright and juicy, with rich, ripe, apple and pear flavors a long, fresh aftertaste. The texture is silky-smooth, with a creaminess achieved by hand-stirring the lees during barrel aging." -winemaker

"We source the fruit for our Chardonnay from California's finest marine-influenced vineyards, where cool breezes and fog allow the grapes to ripen slowly and evenly as they develop rich flavors and complexity. Our winemakers carefully craft our Chardonnay using traditional methods and our exclusive spinning cone process, which gently removes the alcohol while preserving the wine's delicate aromas and flavors. With its deep golden hue, and lively tropical fruit aromas that waft from the glass, our alcohol-removed Chardonnay is elegance personified. Rich, creamy apple flavors mingle with crisp citrus notes on your palate, leading to an enjoyably tart finish. May we pour you a glass?" —winemaker

"Enjoy the fresh pineapple and tropical fruit character of our Chardonnay with cheeses salads and light entrees." -winemaker

"Beautifully integrated tropical flavors such as pineapple, mango and papaya, with citrus notes that explode in your mouth. These flavors delicately intertwine with aromas of vanilla and honey to create depth and balance throughout. A hint of toasted oak and butter rounds out the long, lingering finish." —winemaker

"Green apple and pear aromas classically characterize this wine as Clarksburg, while honeycomb and vanilla heighten the first impression. The rich, round entry rolls into a viscous and silky mouthfeel, surrounded by Asian pears and Honeycrisp apples. The finish lingers long and soft, like the wafting aromas of grandma’s warm apple pie." —winemaker

"Our Bogle Chardonnay is the epitome of a hand-crafted wine: with passion for both the art and science of making wine, our winemakers have created a Chardonnay using 50% barrel fermentation aged for 9 months in new American oak barrels. This wine is certified sustainable by the California Rules for Sustainable Winegrowing and proudly bears the symbol on the label." —winemaker

We grow our grapes in the sun-drenched vineyards of California, where the long, warm growing season helps us coax rich, indulgent flavors into the bottle. Butterkissed Chardonnay has a smooth, creamy mouthfeel, with luscious buttery notes and hints of vanilla, white peach and citrus zest. Serve chilled with wood-fired pizza, parmesan crusted chicken breast or at impromptu get-togethers with friends." —winemaker
