Description
The Ritchie Vineyard was picked throughout September. We use classical Burgundian techniques with the addtion of whole cluster pressing of the grapes. All of our Chardonnays go through native yeast fermentation in three-year air dried French and Hungarian oak barrels and then native, delayed malolactic fermentation. The 2009 Ritchie aged sur lies for 20 months in 55% new oak barrels. It was lightly fined with traditional fining agents before being bottled without filtration in June 2011. Our Ritchie Chardonnay walks the fine line between richness and delicacy. It has a great mouthfeel that balances power and elegance.
