2022 Reserve Chardonnay, Sonoma Valley

Well-structured and richly spiced, this graceful, full-bodied Chardonnay offers vibrant acidity that frames elegant layers of rich apple and pear cobbler. Notes of vanilla, fresh coconut and apple pie tantalize the nose.

Winemaker’s Comments: “Kunde’s physical location in the heart of the Sonoma Valley offers a surprising contrast between vineyard sites. The Reserve blend is a puzzle to put together — finding the barrels from different Chardonnay lots which work best together to make this premier wine. We are always searching for barrels that show a lush mouthfeel, balanced acid, expressive oak and are fruit-forward. Let’s just say that this wine offers a bit of opulence for those Reserve moments in life!”
