Heitz Chardonnay

”The Heitz name is so deeply ingrained in the culture of Cabernet Connoisseurs that some people are surprised to discover we have been making Chardonnay since the winery was founded in 1961. Today our Chardonnay has a classic lively fruitness and richness on the palate that captures the essence of the varietal. The fruit for our Chardonnay comes from various clones and regions within Napa Valley which results and the flintiness from the terroir.”- Kathleen Heitz Myers President Tasting Notes: This is Chardonnay personified – all of the incredible potential of the varietal. Elegantly assertive aromas of honeysuckle white peach and lemon zest hint at the clean refreshing nature of the palate. With just a touch of sweetness from French oak barrels a well-balanced acidity and a slight creaminess this Chardonnay is stunning. Enjoy the long lingering finish – this is one glass of Chardonnay you won’t want to put down.” – Heitz Cellar
