White
Shafer 2014 Red Shoulder Chardonnay
Clement Lavallee 45 Degrees 2022 Chablis
This Chablis is the flagship. There's something very 'Raveneau' about this, their Chablis 45° (named after the steep slope of the vineyard), a wine with beautiful length, a perfectly balanced structure and subtle layers of orchard fruits and lightly-salted butter. It’s focused and richly textured, highlighting why Clément has become one of the fastest rising stars in Chablis.
Grgich Hills 2018 Chardonnay
This gorgeous Chardonnay opens with fresh, citrus aromas of meyer lemon and lime followed by juicy, ripe peach, with underlying notes of honeysuckle, herbs and vanilla. The 2018 vintage showed above average natural acids in the wines, which, along with lower sugar levels, make the 2018 vintage white wines exceptionally fresh and vibrant. Take a sip, and you’ll find that this 2018 Chardonnay, Napa Valley exhibits extraordinary balance of citrus fruit on the front palate with minerality and depth of flavors on the mid-palate. The aftertaste is harmonious and lingers well beyond expectation.
Clement Lavallee 2022 Chablis Les Ardill
The 2022 Les Ardillers comes Chardonnay planted to clay-limestone soils from 45-year-old vines in the 1.6Ha namesake lieu-dit. It’s aged for 12 months in 1- to 5-year-old barrels for half the crop, the other in stainless steel on the lees. This shows assiduous use of the lees, lending weight and texture to the vibrant finish; a more classically taut and mineral expression of Chablis.
