✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Named in honor of Johann Sebastian Bach's masterpiece, the 'Goldberg Variations No. 2' Chardonnay represents winemaker Paul Lato's harmonious blending of artistry and terroir. The fruit is sourced from the legendary Hyde Vineyard in the Carneros region of Napa Valley, a site celebrated for its cool maritime breezes from the San Pablo Bay and ancient clay-loam soils. This unique microclimate allows the Chardonnay grapes—predominantly the low-yielding Wente clone—to ripen slowly, retaining vibrant natural acidity while developing deep, complex flavors. In the cellar, Lato employs traditional French burgundian techniques, including barrel fermentation and aging in select French oak barrels, to craft a wine of exceptional texture, purity, and mineral-driven elegance.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Paul Lato Wines er et anerkendt boutique-vinhus i Santa Barbara County, Californien, grundlagt i 2002 af den polskfødte tidligere sommelier Paul Lato. Med udgangspunkt i en kompromisløs, håndværksmæssig og minimalistisk vinfremstilling, hvor terroirets renhed og balance er i højsædet, samarbejder Lato med nogle af Central Coasts mest prestigefyldte kølige vinmarker, herunder Bien Nacido, Solomon Hills og Larner. Vingården høster stor international anerkendelse for sine intenst aromatiske, teksturerede og nuancerede Pinot Noir-, Syrah-, Grenache- og Chardonnay-vine i mikrolodder, som roses for deres rene frugtudtryk, strukturelle præcision og karakteristiske, poetiske cuvée-navne.
