2015 Bellbird Chardonnay, Sonoma Mountain
This single vineyard wine was hand picked and whole cluster pressed direct to barrel. Natural fermentation of both sugar and malic acid.
Our Sonoma Mountain Bellbird Chardonnay presents a fun spectacle of flavors, from apple and pear, to lemon and custard. Its playful acidity, although slightly broader than the 2014 vintage, makes the flavors fly at your palate. Truly a fun and layered Chardonnay, it’s reminiscent of an old-world French Montrachet. A perfect wine to enjoy outside on the deck with some cheese, or to just, you know, Netflix and chill. Have this wine any way you want, it will give you a strong sense of where it’s from and the passion that went into it. Drink now or hold through 2025. Drinks best with a slight chill.
Always minimal Sulfites added.
Our wines share the reality of travel, of family, of blending old and new world approaches with our personalities. Fun is what we intend, and what we hope you experience with every bottle you open. Each of our wines is a personality, someone new you meet. We hope you make a few new friends, and revisit with them over and over. Being part of the process from step one, seeing our wines grow and develop character from when we pick them to when they’re bottled, we consider them part of our family. And, we’d love to share them, and our journeys, with you.
We don’t hope to follow trends, but instead let the vineyards and the conditions of a certain vineyard for a given year tell us what to do with the wine. We’re there with it every day, from when it’s picked to when it’s bottled. The wines we make represent everything we love and believe in: love for wine, family, and this dream that we live everyday here in wine country. Caroline and I have always thought making wine is about getting your hands dirty and getting as close to the dirt as you can. The earth is what gives us the wine, and that’s what needs to be known. It’s where my relationship with the wine starts.
Everything is reflected in the wines we make. Our family, our love of wine, our travels, our personalities, our past… everything. Our relationship with wine started with a love of where it’s from, walking the vineyard and delivering what’s out there into the bottle, for everyone to enjoy. Wine shouldn’t be manipulated, it should speak a truth. And these wines are our truth, the truth we want to share with you. So, again, we hope you enjoy whichever of our bottles you have in front of you at the moment, and let our story be part of yours.
Cheers,
Blair & Caroline Guthrie, Winemakers
