2019 'Secret Woods' Sparkling Chardonnay

2019 began with favorable, steady temperatures that suggested harvest would begin earlier than the prior year. However, as we were preparing to begin picking fruit in August temperatures around the state suddenly dropped that caused most of our fruit ripening to slow and bestowed advantageous added hangtime and acidity. We finished harvesting fruit just before an early freeze throughout Walla Walla Valley in October. The 2019 vintage looks exceptional across all varietals and we are pleased with the fresh and vibrant flavors coming through.
