Chosen from a vineyard on the southern end of Mt Veeder, where the cooling Carneros has more influence, the Gro Chardonnay “Haspel Vineyard” is rich, multi-dimensional wine that will please all fans of the varietal. Pears, grated ginger, pineapple, orange melons and preserved lemon smells and flavors from start to finish. A little toasty, a scratch of vanilla bean. Round, succulent and vibrant. Definitely going the roast whole fish or shellfish/crustacean direction here.
GRO wines are owned, made and managed by husband/wife team Lars Bjorkman and Molly Hill. They are both accomplished Napa Valley winemakers (look up their resume). They bring their skills and limitless passion to their own brand GRO.
