BACKGROUND Noble Tree was originally founded as a passion project by two sommeliers/restaurateurs to produce wines for their fellow industry friends. Production began as a true “garagistes-négociant” style winery, focusing on healthy vineyard sources, hand harvesting and honest winemaking practices. In 2019, Marc Taub of Taub Family Vineyards became proprietor of Noble Tree, upholding the mission and essence of the winemaking philosophy: to respect varietal character and reflect the vineyard site and vintage conditions in each wine. TERROIR & VINTAGE NOTES The vineyard is located in the Chalk Hill – Russian River Valley AVA, in the town of Windsor. Planted in the mid-1970s, the vineyard is sited in a north-south orientation and is home to 17 acres of old vine Noble Tree Chardonnay and five acres of old vine Noble Tree Zinfandel. The vineyard is a classic valley floor site with alluvial soils exhibiting the dry, silty, loamy sand and gravel characteristics of an ancient riverbed and provides a perfect site to produce grapes for high-quality wines with varietal distinction. WINEMAKING & AGING This wine was produced from grapes grown on vines planted on our Estate Chalk Hill– Russian River Vineyard. The terroir provides for a compelling expression of Chalk Hill – Russian River Valley fruit at its finest. This wine was made using traditional winemaking techniques including fermentation and aging in concrete eggs tanks along with restrained use of French Oak barrels. TASTING NOTES On the nose, notes of subtle stone fruit and ripe citrus. The crisp mouthfeel shows great potential for developing classic Rhône varietal viscosity. White peach intertwined with a wet stone minerality make this a great food pairing wine or wonderful on its own as an aperitif. 750ML ORIGIN Chalk Hill - Russian River Valley, California, United States GRAPE VARIETIES 75% Grenache Blanc, 25% Viognier SIZES 750ml TECHNICAL DETAILS ABV: 13.6%, Closure: Cork WINEMAKER Nicolas Cantacuzene
