Winemaker Notes
The Robert Young Estate Winery Chardonnay is rich and complex. It is loaded with tropical fruit aromas of guava, melon, pineapple and a hint of crisp lemon. The wine has a powerful taste, with flavors of pear, apple, nectarine, honey and spice supported by a good structure of acidity.
This Chardonnay is made predominately from the Robert Young clone #17, a vine of French Burgundy descent that was developed at the Youngs family vineyards in Alexander Valley, Sonoma County, California. Clone #17 is reputed to produce some of the most distinctive Chardonnay fruit in the world.

One hundred and forty-three years after Peter and Rachel Young established their 206-acre farm in Alexander Valley, California, their great-grandchildren are building a winery and adding a new chapter to the family history. The Young Family became winegrowers in 1963 when third generation Robert Young planted the valley's first Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. In 1975 they were propelled into international prominence, with the help of winemaker Richard Arrowood, by becoming one of the first vineyard-designation wines in California. The legacy now continues, collaborating again with Arrowood to create the premier offerings from Robert Young Estate Winery.
