Winemaker Notes
The epitome of meticulous farming is what always comes to mind first when I think of Bearwallow. This deep end Anderson Valley site has been a part of Rivers-Marie program since 2016 and enjoy its different nature from all the tiny clustered Sonoma Coast vineyards that make up the majority of their program. This bottling always has a distinctive yellow fruited character complemented by a saline and roasted nut character. Their little 1.5 acre Wente clone block has matured into one of the unique coastal Chardonnays we taste every year. A bottle worth the venture heading into these summer months!
