Hartford Court Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2019

Our winemaking is focused on artisan techniques: all hand harvested at night or early morning; whole cluster pressing; indigenous yeast barrel fermentations in all French oak barrels (32% new); aged for 10 months, weekly lees stirring through malolactic fermentation; no fining and minimal filtration. These gentle handling techniques help promote fruit intensity, greater complexity and a wine with balance and elegance.
