From the Winery:
THE VINEYARD: Located on the top of the Eastern slope of the Sonoma ridge overlooking the town of Sonoma, Fallenleaf
Vineyard is an 8-acre gem planted to Old Wente Chardonnay. Owner Harry Cohn works tirelessly with Atlas Vineyard
Management to methodically produce a stellar crop year after year. Established before today's modern skinny tractors,
the low yields of wide rows are compensated for with a unique double trunk / mid-wire cordon system that can only work
in a well-ventilated, cool hillside site like this one.
TASTING NOTES: Bright canary yellow in color with deeper golden tones. Complex aromas of dried apricots, ripe yellow
apples, cantaloupe, and hay. Piercing acidity on the palate balances a full body with notes of Meyer lemon, sour apples
and candied pineapples.
