The Character
Overall Bright, balanced, crisp
Tasting Notes Rich straw in color with brilliant clarity. Aromas of tropical fruit, citrus, creamy oak, and subtle buttery toffee lead into a rich, full palate with a creamy texture and lingering finish. The wine has weight and depth, but stays balanced by the natural brightness of Oak Knoll Chardonnay.
Pairings Sesame Chicken, Crab Cakes, Fontina or Camembert cheese

The Story
Chardonnay is one of the original reasons the Corley family came to Oak Knoll. They believed this cooler southern part of Napa Valley had the right combination of morning fog, afternoon sun, and bay influence to grow exceptional Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
Our Estate Chardonnay continues that vision. Grown from our Monticello Estate Vineyard in the Oak Knoll District, this wine reflects our farming-first approach: take care of the land, preserve freshness, and let the vineyard speak. It is bright, layered, and expressive, with the balance and texture that make Chardonnay one of the clearest reflections of our estate.
