TRENTADUE LA STORIA CHARDONNAY 750 ML

The grapes for the 2019 La Storia Chardonnay was sourced from old and established Russian River vineyards with very small berries and clusters providing great concentration of aromas and flavors. The grapes were hand-picked early in the morning at the lowest temperature possible. Trentadue pressed the fruit directly without destemming for preserving more of the delicate aromas. The entire lot was barrel fermented using two different types of yeast with partial malolactic fermentation to preserve the fruit expression of the grapes and to keep more of the natural acidity and freshness.

ABOUT THE WINERY: TRENTADUE

The Trentadue family arrived in Sonoma County long before the region gained a reputation as the Wine Country. Life-long, hands-on agriculturists, Evelyn and Leo Trentadue contributed significantly to the advancement of their region over the years. In 1959, the Trentadues decided to flee the developers encroaching on their apricot and cherry orchards in Sunnyvale, the area known today around the world as Silicon Valley. To preserve their way of life, these hard-working Italian ranchers purchased 208 acres of land in Sonoma County's then remote Alexander Valley.
