A golden gem from the legendary Russian River Valley — bold, tropical, and irresistibly refined.

Crafted from 50+ year-old Old Wente vines planted in sandy gold loam, this ultra-premium Chardonnay is a sublime expression of elegance and precision The 2022 vintage dazzles with creamy Maui pineapple, sun-kissed white peaches, quince, and delicate jasmine and chamomile tea, all elevated by coastal minerality and vibrant, mouthwatering acidity. Fermented with native yeast, aged bâtonnage sur lies, and bottled unfined and unfiltered, it finishes long and decadent with notes of crème brûlée.

Chill, decant briefly, and experience every layered nuance of this exceptional vintage. With only 89 cases produced, this is a Cabernet-lover's Chardonnay you won't want to miss.

Tasting Notes

"The 2022 Woolsey Road Vineyard Chardonnay is absolutely delicious. It instantly begins to impress as it opens with a bouquet of Asian Pears, baked pineapples, tropical fruits, honeysuckle, crème brûlée, and vibrant citrus blossoms, each note coming together in perfect harmony. On the palate, this wine reveals a luxurious texture, beautifully complemented by a refreshing streak of acidity that maintains balance and freshness from start to finish. A truly delightful Chardonnay from Hertelendy that is already exceptional." — International Wine Report, 95 Points

Ratings

"The 2022 ‘Woolsey Road Vineyard’ is sourced from this site in the Russian River Valley. This is dense, unctuous and delicious stuff...saline drenched peaches combine with pie crust and shades of mango creme brûlée on the palate. Delicious now, enjoy over the next six plus years to come. Drink 2025-2031." — Owen Bargreen
