2022 Walker Station Vineyard Chardonnay
92 pts
Wine Enthusiast
"Anjou pear, nectarine and honeysuckle aromas waft from the glass of this lighter styled Chardonnay. The palate shares fresh pineapple, lemon curd and sage before a racy, acid-driven finish that lingers with hints of white flowers. — Tom R. Capo"

Introducing
Walker Station
Vineyard owner Harry Walker has grown wine grapes in Napa Valley, Knights Valley, Dry Creek Valley and Lodi since 1968. In 2001 he found an ideal site on an east-facing slope in a cool valley southwest of Forestville in Sonoma County. He planted 3.2 acres of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Now retired, Harry approached us about leasing his vineyard and we leapt at the opportunity to farm this little gem renowned for exquisite fruit. We have exclusive access to the grapes, and we vineyard designate both the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
