The vineyard is composed of the famous Goldridge sandy loam soils which produce vines of moderate vigor. We source our fruit from two different blocks and two different clones the See clone and the Rued clone. These clones each offer a unique flavor to the Stiling wine. The coastal influence produces daytime temperatures that allow the grapes to slowly develop full ripeness while retaining perfect balance. Nickel & Nickel produces Chardonnay from 10.5-acres within the 35- acre vineyard.Wine NotesAPPELLATIONRussian River Valley, SonomaHARVEST DATESSeptember 27- October 5, 2013VARIETAL100% ChardonnayFERMENTATIONBarrel fermented (no ML)AGING9 months in French oak61% new39% once-usedRELEASE DATEMarch 2015FIRST VINTAGE2011HARVESTNOTESSENSORYNOTESAnother remarkable growing season led to an outstanding year in the Russian River. A warm, dry spring led to an early budbreak, and this pattern continued throughout the season. Healthy canopies and a large crop load meant that we needed to remove leaves around the fruiting zone, exposing the fruit as much as possible. The cool, foggy mornings helped the fruit retain its natural acidity while the warmer afternoons developed flavor. With the exception of one heat spike in early July, the temperatures were ideal for fruit ripening and these blocks were harvested about one week apart, as each clone sparkled with its unique flavors.
