Chenin Blanc
Lodi, California, USA
2021
2019
Tasting Notes
This medium-bodied Chenin Blanc has aromas of Bosc pears, honeydew, light guava and a lovely flint-mineral character. These intense aromas are followed by flavors of pear, white peach, lemon-zest and citrus that finishes crisp, plush and mouth-filling.
Vineyards
In 2012, the Kautz family planted their first Chenin Blanc in Lodi. The grapes come primarily from the winery’s Sloughouse sub-appellation, but a small amount comes from just west of the river in the Delta. These well- drained soils, each with their own unique qualities, are ideal for growing world- class wine grapes.
Winemaking
The Ironstone Chenin Blanc is traditionally fermented using 100% stainless steel.
