Encosta (2nd Label of Gandona) Description

ABOUT THE WINERY - Gandona Estate is single-minded in our approach to ensuring quality. We don’t purchase out-side grapes and we custom-built a winery to control every stage of the grape growing and winemaking process. The winery was completed in 2010 and was designed to embrace the best of both old- and new-world winemaking techniques. Adopting an old-world practice used by the legendary Chateaux of France, concrete fermentation tanks were incorporated into the winery’s design. Wines are barrel-aged in a cave tucked inside Pritchard Hill’s rocky interior, providing consistently cool temperatures and an ideal degree of humidity.

The 2018 Encosta Chardonnay from Gandona is a stunner. The fruit comes from the Rodgers Creek and Ritchie Vineyards in Sonoma. It offers up exotic notes of ripe pear, Meyer Lemon curd, crushed citrus, toasted almond, and a rock-like minerality emerge from the glass. There is a lovely medium - bodied richness, plenty of toasty oak, great acidity, and flawless balance. This is a beautifully complex, nuanced, and seamless Chardonnay
