This lush Chardonnay has plenty of character and is loaded with perfectly ripened apples, caramelized pineapple, and toasted brioche, which team together to form the foundation of this deep and delightfully expressive vineyard selection. The optimally ripened fruit is complimented by a tasteful measure of slightly creamy oak that hints at notes of crème Brule, along with a dollop of buttery richness that lasts well into the lengthy finish. The mouthfeel is slightly viscous and supple on entry but manages to maintain youthful energy thanks to some carefully integrated supporting acidity that assures that the wine is as carefully balanced as it is wonderfully rich.

Our 2023 Morning Fog Chardonnay bursts with aromatics of citrus and green apple complemented by hints of toasty oak and vanilla from barrel-aging. This wine is balanced by a lingering minerality and natural acidity to create a beautiful wine.

For over a century, the Wente family has played a pioneering role in the development of California Chardonnay. This limited release is meticulously crafted from our estate-grown, certified sustainable vineyards and partially aged in French oak barrels. With vibrant notes of green apple, citrus, and subtle vanilla, the wine presents a refined balance of freshness and complexity. We are proud to offer this distinguished expression of our continued dedication to Chardonnay excellence.
