Estate Chardonnay

2017 Lodi Chardonnay

The Oak Farm Vineyards Estate Chardonnay from the 2017 vintage is a captivating white wine that beautifully showcases the lush terroir of Lodi. It presents a full-bodied experience with a bright and refreshing acidity that dances on the palate, offering a delightful counterbalance to its prominent fruit intensity. Flavors of ripe pear and crisp green apple are beautifully interwoven with hints of vanilla and subtle oak, lending a creamy richness that enhances its overall complexity. The wine features a well-structured profile with a medium level of tannins, adding a touch of finesse without overshadowing the fruit. As a dry wine, it remains elegantly balanced, making it not only enjoyable on its own but also exceptionally food-friendly, pairing wonderfully with a variety of dishes.

Region:


Lodi

The jewel of the Central Valley, Lodi lies just east of the California Delta in an area of varied terroir. Winemakers here can extract different grape variety expressions from each plot of land. Zinfandel is common here, making deeply fruity and tantalizingly smoky wines, often from old vines. But the deep loamy soils and balmy Mediterranean climate, with its warm days and cool nights, help keep Lodi's grape varieties and winemaking styles impressively diverse. Alongside the ubiquitous Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot and Viognier also thrive. Lodi is a melting pot of different grape varieties and winemaking techniques, all of which make it a rewarding region to explore.
