Wright Creek Chardonnay

90 Points Jeb Dunnuck

Our Wright Creek Estate Vineyard Chardonnay is grown in Arbuckle soil and is composed of clone 15 and 17. Clone 15 originated in Prosser, Washington and clone 17, or the “Robert Young” clone, originally came from the Wente Vineyard in the 1960’s. Each Chardonnay block here is planted with the ideal clone and rootstock, the result of years of learning what works best where.
