The color is a very light vibrant yellow, with a wonderful aroma of freshly sliced apples.  The acid level is simply perfect, with a soft middle and fruity crispness at the finish.  The wine is lively on the palate and brings joy to the drinker. 

Smith-Madrone’s Chardonnay is grown at the top of Spring Mountain (1,900-foot elevation), west of St. Helena in the Napa Valley.  The vines are planted on very steep slopes (up to 35% slope) in red volcanic soil.  The vines receive only the rain that Mother Nature lets fall from the sky, forcing the vines to send their roots deep into the mountain soil in search of moisture.  This centuries old method of farming wine grapes, known today as dry farming, creates a grape with intense flavor, structure, and finesse.
