From the famed Bacigalupi Vineyard in Sonoma’s
Russian River Appellation (same vineyard as Chateau
Montelena’s Chardonnay that won the 1976 Judgement
of Paris). Stunning!

The 2023 vintage will go down in history as one of the
greatest in decades. This Fourmeaux Chardonnay
effortlessly balances it’s intense minerality, a
backbone of bright acidity & tension with a rich,
citrus fruit character. Candied pineapple, juicy
mandarins and white peach flavors are counterbalanced
by rich tart au citron and white apricot &
nectarine oils. The floral notes are simply intoxicating,
transforming you into the garden with orange
blossom, honeysuckle, lilac, and chamomile aromas.

The natural sweetness presented by the vintage is
evenly balanced with the racy acidity. Enjoyable today,
the powerful structure of this wine wil l carry for 10 to
15 years in the cellar with ease.
