Vineyard Sources:
30% Chardonnay
Sobieski Estate Vineyard
AVA, Sonoma Mountain AVA, California
Clone 4 – Volcanic Soil
70% Chardonnay
Lodi AVA
The 80% of the fruit that comes from Lodi is
located at the northern edge of the San
Joaquin Valley, east of San Francisco Bay.
Lodi enjoys a similar climate and growing
conditions to its coastal neighbors Napa and
Sonoma. The two major rivers originating in
the Sierra Nevada mountain range that feeds
the Lodi appellation have brought soils rich
in granitic-based minerals that lend complex
flavors to the wines of Lodi.
