Martin Ray Chardonnay 750 ML

VINTAGE NOTES
Vintage 2022 started early, with bud break in early March. Late spring cold weather, with much-needed precipitation, helped shape the season, in another record drought year. Premature summer warmth, with a record early harvest in late July. While the vintage was marked by incredible variation across each growing region, and low yields throughout, the wines are lively and fruit-forward with balanced tannins.
WINEMAKING NOTES
Each lot picked individually at peak ripeness. Gently pressed, cold-settled for two days, then racked to stainless and 30% new French oak barrels. Certain lots see inoculation, while others are natural yeast fermentations.
