Fog's Edge

Russian River Valley | California
img

Fog knows no boundaries. Fog moves in at a slow pace, covers a landscape, and brings with it silence and mystery. You cannot see through or into fog. Like a cat, fog is always looking, taking everything in. Everything that has a shape: mountains, buildings, fences, people, all get obscured by fog. But fog does not continue endlessly, and where it stops, the world is clear and bright to us again. Fog makes many appearances around the rolling hills and gentle slopes of the Russian River Valley. This area known for its foggy nights and misty mornings has the ideal climate and soil for growing premium Chardonnay.  Just as fog knows no boundaries, the range of Chardonnay styles is almost as limitless.

2021 Fog's Edge Chardonnay, RRV, Grey Shells

Tasting Notes: Pale straw color. The aroma is of sub-tropical and stone fruits. It is balanced with a light vanilla oak. The mouth has a vibrant minerality accompanying a mouth-watering natural acidity, similar to a Chablis style. Stirring the lees (Sur Lie) is performed to give a little more texture to the finish. This wine was fermented with native yeast and allowed to go through ML for about 3 months. This Chardonnay is elegant enough to pair with delicate foods and delicious enough to drink by itself after a long day. Drink now over the next 10 years.

Shows white peach, apricot, pineapple, and Meyer lemon flavors in a bright and lively style. The mid-palate is rich and fruity yet dry. Transitions from creamy vanilla to a trace of Fuji apple in the finish.
