Chardonnay
G3 is a tribute to the three generations of the Monson family to have farmed in the Columbia Valley for more than a century.
Tasting Notes
The 2023 G3 Chardonnay reveals rich, deep, and expressive layered aromas of pineapple, lemongrass, and nectarine, intertwined with tangerine and subtle hints of slate and warm fruit pastry. The palate showcases vibrant energy with lively, intense citrus and stone fruit flavors supported by a strong mineral undercurrent. Structure, tension, and focused energy define the finish, promising impressive depth and complexity.
Vineyards
The fruit for this wine was sourced from some of the premier north-blocks of the estate.
Vintage Notes
Being such a warm vintage, the fruit was harvested early with developed, ripe, and intense flavors.
Winemaking
This blend is comprised of a selection of individual barrel fermented and aged lots along with stainless steel fermented and aged lots. This creates a wine that possesses a nice balance of spice and toast from the barrels, while respecting and highlighting the fruit. Aged for 10 months in 20% new oak.
