2024 NUTT ROAD CHARDONNAY
The 2024 vintage is part of our legacy vintages. While it's no longer available for purchase, its reviews, accolades, and story live here permanently.
Shop the 2025 Vintage →Nutt Road Vineyard is situated on gravelly loam soils over limestone and shale. The vineyard’s slope, air flow, and proximity to the lake support slow, balanced ripening—ideal conditions for cool-climate Chardonnay.
A bright, mineral-driven expression of Chardonnay, crafted entirely in stainless steel to preserve freshness and vineyard character. Gently pressed and cold-settled, the juice underwent a cool fermentation in stainless steel using selected neutral yeasts to retain varietal purity. The wine remained on fine lees for six months post-fermentation, with periodic bâtonnage (lees stirring) to build mid-palate texture, enhance complexity, and round out natural acidity.
94 points, James Suckling, 2025
This Chardonnay is sleek and precise, with a core of lemon zest, white peach, and green apple. The extended lees contact imparts subtle notes of brioche and wet stone, softening the edges while maintaining a lifted, linear structure. The finish is crisp and refreshing, with a saline minerality that lingers.
100% Chardonnay
