Description

Frog’s Leap has been fortunate enough to work with the same Chardonnay vineyard ever since the first vintage in 1985. Planted by the renowned Truchard
family in 1979, these vines are deeply rooted in the decomposed shale and sandstone
that are characteristic of the steeply-sloped hillsides of Carneros, and lend
themselves perfectly to the balanced, restrained style. Held for a
handful of days in new French oak barrels, the wine is racked at the peak of its
fermentation to concrete vessels, where it sits, untouched and sur lie, for up to 12
months. Grown in shale and aged in stone, this Chardonnay boasts incredible
freshness and a distinct mineral edge that speaks directly to its origins.
