Joseph Swan Vineyards Saralee's Vineyard Chardonnay, Russian River Valley, USA 2023

This wine is from a very small block of grapes that were planted to a musqué clone of chardonnay. The term musqué refers to the highly aromatic properties of the grapes. We first made wine form this block many years ago but with the sale of the property we no longer had access to it. In 2023 I asked if it might be available, and we were able to get it all! Unfortunately, time has not been kind to the vines and very little fruit is produced.
