2022 | PlumpJack Winery | Reserve Chardonnay

The nose delivers layers of aromas – apple, baked pear, and lemon curd mingle with white peach, apricot, and honeysuckle with a dash of nutmeg and cinnamon just beneath the fruit. The palate is energetic and dynamic, beginning with rich, mouth-filling texture reminiscent of lemon curd, followed by bright acidity that evokes lemon zest and honey crisp apples. The beautiful acidity pulls the wine through the back of the palate and creates a long and structured finish.

Producer Information

PlumpJack Winery is located in Oakville, in California's Napa Valley. Like many producers in the region, it is famous for its Cabernet Sauvignon wines made in the foothills of the Vaca Mountains. The estate covers 42 acres (17 ha), encompassing well-drained hillside sites and rich clays on the valley floor. The diversity of terroir here is reflected in the Cabernet Sauvignon wines that PlumpJack has within its collection. Fruit is also sourced from grower vineyards in Carneros, Rutherford and Calistoga to make a range of varietal wines from Syrah, Merlot and Chardonnay. PlumpJack uses a range of winemaking techniques in the winery. Fermentation takes place in either stainless steel or oak, with either wild or introduced yeast. A range of oak treatments are also employed, from new and old French oak barriques to 500-liter puncheons. PlumpJack was founded in 1995 by Gavin Newsom and Gordon Getty, who went on to build a small empire of hotels, restaurants, retailers and wineries in Napa and San Francisco. These include the CADE winery in Napa and Odette in the Stags Leap District.
