Jax Vineyards Description
Our Chardonnay grapes come from a single vineyard in Carneros that is influenced by the cooling effect of the Pacific Ocean allowing for a long growing season. The grapes are fermented in French concrete tanks and aged in barrels 3+ years old. The concrete vessel fermentation enhances the aromatics of the varietal, increases the mineral character and highlights the terroir and vineyard site.
James Suckling: 91 Points
Not the typical California chardonnay. This subtle, almost stony refreshing wine is relatively light in body, emphasizing crisp acidity and savory mineral flavors. Grapes from Carneros were fermented in concrete vats and aged in neutral barrels. Drink now.

Firm yellow stone fruits, ripe pear and a hint of pleasing spices carry a Chardonnay of enticing texture and a lot of length.
