Stags Leap Manor, as it was called in the 1920s, was known as one of the prominent country retreats in the Napa Valley at a time when resort and spa business was big. Pale lemon stone fruit and citrus aromas and toasty yeasty notes. On the palate melon, pineapple and pear, fresh & crisp with notes of oak, a bit creamy. Long finish with wet stone and mineral character, well balanced, stays crisp on ending. Nice!

Lean, super floral, soft pear and lemon. No discernible oak, unexpectedly. Medium acid, round soft body - while not particularly exciting, this is pretty crowd pleaser.

“Sunday Funday” with friends & family ✨

A solid Chardonnay that paired nicely with a fresh salad with beets & mandarin oranges.

Amber color, fruity with hint of spice on the nose. Smooth citrus finish.

Great alternative to Rombauer , while still being very well done - much less oaky , but no less bright and fruity
