Hearst's signature white wine with a pleasant acidity and minerality.
The wine is aged mainly in stainless steel tanks, but also in French oak barrels that have been used twice to give the wine depth. When poured into a glass, the aroma of fresh green apples, nectarines, and creme brulée spreads. The rich flavor is tightened by the acidity typical of Chardonnay grown in a cool climate, making it food-friendly. The wonderful characteristics of Chardonnay grapes, such as a refreshing minerality and beautiful aftertaste, stand out.
This bottling simultaneously presents with easy-drinking appeal as well as with an intriguing depth of personality. The aromatic profile is playful, with perfumed notes of daisies and freshly cut grass layered with a hint of French oak. Its resolute acid profile counters a creamy weight on the mid-palate and frames the presentation as a whole. A versatile companion for a wide range of cuisines, this vintage is well-balanced and should be enjoyed now through 2026.
