Perilune offers a luminous expression of Chardonnay, shaped by Sta. Rita Hills’ coastal tension and our desire to let the site remain unobscured. The wine feels both textural and precise, with Meyer lemon, pear, white flowers and crushed mineral notes moving toward a long, salt-edged finish that invites another glass.

Winemaking

Whole cluster pressed Chardonnay. Only neutral barrels are employed during fermentation with no lees disturbance. Malolactic fermentation is neither encouraged nor inhibited, allowing wine to be in balance, bright and elegant. All of the wines are produced with the intention of aging and cellaring for at least 10 years and can easily be enjoyed after 15 years.

Vineyard

Comprised of a vast array of elevation, aspect and soil profile, Perilune is by far and away the most ambitiously complex of all of our vineyards. From beach sand to botella clay, the rugged terrain and dramatic inclines offer a myriad of opportunities for dynamic fruit expression. Mindful clonal selection bespoke for each of the forty two unique blocks further amplifies the diversity of this parcel which has swiftly become the predominant core of our wines.
