Located in the gateway to Napa Valley, this family owned vineyard is nestled at the top of a small knoll in the center of the Carneros Appellation. Bordered by some of the world’s finest Chardonnay and Pinot Noir producers, the fruit from this unique vineyard enjoys a pedigree second to none.
Situated in this cool climate region that rarely reaches 80 degrees in the summer and loamy alluvial soils work together to restrict yields bearing the highest quality fruit Each vine enjoys 360 degree sunlight that evenly ripens each chardonnay cluster. Hand-picked and moved to the winery, whole clusters are pressed just right to surrender the precious juice that is barrel fermented into the Redmon Chardonnay.
