100% Chardonnay
Linda Vista Vineyard • Napa Valley • 2022
Toshokan’s flagship blanc de blancs, made from the esteemed Linda Vista Vineyard. Extended aging gives this wine complexity and bready notes that cut through a lifted, lemony base.
Story
Vineyard
The Linda Vista Vineyard sits on alluvial soils in the south end of the Napa Valley, where the cooling influence of nearby San Pablo Bay is a major factor. The cooler climate helps preserve acidity and mineralogy of these grapes. Farmed organically by the Matthiassons.
Winemaking
Gently pressed, settled in tank overnight and then spontaneously fermented in neutral French oak barrels. A true méthode champenoise, this sparkling was aged sur lie for 18 months. Disgorged by hand August 2024.
