      Detailed Description

      Focused, fresh and bright. The 2018 Skycrest Vineyard Chardonnay offers a complex mix of citrus, tropical and stone fruit that can only be achieved from this elevation. The unique blend of white peach, papaya, lemon tart and floral aromas blend seamlessly into a light and fresh palate of Cara Cara Orange, almond and hints of ground ginger. The acidity is lazer focused throughout the wine and highlights the incredible texture and delightfully long finish.

      Reviews:

      • Wine Enthusiast: This wine is a beauty, balancing a band of subtle flavors with a polished texture and vibrant acidity that give it a lively presence on the palate and a lingering finish. Mild baking spices and toast in the aroma give way to baked apple and cream flavors that are delicious to linger over.
      • Jeb Dunnuck: Coming from the Anderson Valley, the 2018 Chardonnay Skycrest Vineyard offers lots of pear and Meyer lemon fruits as well as hints of toast and chalky minerality. Medium-bodied, it has bright, juicy acidity and the classic savory, mineral-laced style of this appellation.

              Producer Information

              Situated adjacent to the redwoods and one of the last vineyards before one reaches the Pacific, the Maggy Hawk vineyard is located in what many refer to as the “deep end” of Anderson Valley. The vineyard contains a complex patchwork of different facings, slopes and clones, all of which conspire to provide a dazzling array of different Pinot Noirs. The soil is comprised of decomposed sandstone, known for exceptional drainage and low nutrients, both critical to the development of naturally balanced vines. As one might expect, yields are controlled by Mother Nature in this setting; in most years, the Maggy Hawk vineyard provides no more than two tons per acre. Adversity often brings greatness to Pinot Noir, the most difficult of grapes to master. Greatness also arises in champion racehorses, something Proprietor Barbara Banke recognized and celebrates in the gifted Maggy Hawk, a winning thoroughbred honored with this Pinot Noir effort from the deep end of Mendocino’s Anderson Valley, mere moments from the Pacific Ocean. Each wine in the series is named for a horse born to Maggy Hawk: Jolie, Afleet, Stormin’ and Unforgettable, and to her sire, Hawkster. The unique expression borne of training, bloodlines, site and alchemy applies equally to wine and horses – Pinot Noir and thoroughbreds in particular.
