NEW RELEASE: 2023 OLG Chardonnay The 2023 vintage was textbook by all accounts—a long cool growing season led to ideal ripening conditions and gorgeous fruit. The Old Wente clone of Chardonnay was exactly what we were hoping for with small and large berries intermixed on clusters, known as the “Hens and Chicks”, providing for a natural complexity. For our second Chardonnay release, we decided to capture what we liked most about our debut vintage, a specific type of new French oak barrel. Therefore, the 2023 OLG Chardonnay, fermented and aged in 70% New French Oak, used exclusively one type of barrel from one cooperage. In other words, we put all our eggs in one basket...a pretty darn good basket! Limited quantities are now available for sale on our website (for CA customers only) and in select states nationwide.
