92 Points! The Wine Advocate
“Fermented in barrel and aged 11 months in 36% new French oak, the 2016 Chardonnay Estate
has a ripe apple, peach blossom, poached pears and nutmeg-scented nose with a waft of beeswax.
Medium to full-bodied, the palate is satisfyingly savory with plenty of citrus and mineral accents and a long spicy finish.”
Robert Parker Jr
92 Points! The Wine Spectator
“Vibrant minerality meets crisp white fruit flavors, with dried savory notes midpalate.
The resonant finish offers citrus zest and chamomile accents.”
Our Thoughts...............
The 2016 Chardonnay Estate is sourced from higher elevation sites and was barrel fermented and aged.
It offers a classic style in its baked apples, spice, honeycomb, and marzipan profile.
Deep, beautifully balanced, and textured, it’s a class act with a lengthy finish.

Their Story, their words..........
Ranging in elevation from 400ft to 2400ft, Stonestreet Estate Vineyards stands as the one largest and most extensive mountain vineyards in the world. Towering high above the Alexander Valley in the Mayacamas Mountain Range, Stonestreet Estate defies all previous conceptions of winegrowing. Single vineyard blocks are aligned in every imaginable spot on the compass, with peaks, valleys and ridges creating a broad spectrum of varied facings and elevations.
Winegrowers throughout history have looked to high elevation sites with impoverished, rocky soils to produce richly concentrated wines of character. Mountain vineyards are notoriously difficult to farm, and Stonestreet Estate is no exception. The Estate’s myriad of vine spacing, and broad array of elevation and mesoclimate require a vine-by-vine approach to winegrowing.
As harvest approaches, our winemaking team works closely with Mother Nature to determine quality levels for each block, walking the vineyards and tasting berries for flavor and tannin maturation. The selection process is a stringent one, but the rewards are unmistakable: Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc etched with the bold and distinctive flavor profile of the Mayacamas Mountain Range.

Stonestreet Estate Vineyards is committed to demonstrating leadership in sustainable environmental practices.
Our goals are focused around increasing water and energy use efficiency, conserving the use of resources, reducing waste and maintaining the natural environment.
