2022 EnRoute Brumaire Chardonnay, Russian River Valley

EnRoute Chardonnay, Russian River Valley, “Brumaire” is named for the fog that gently envelops the vineyards in Russian River Valley, creating the perfect climate to nurture our fruit to ideal ripeness. The 2022 vintage exhibits enchanting aromas of key lime pie and lemon zest on the nose. A gushing acidity upon entry invigorates the palate with flavors reminiscent of lemon meringue. The palate continues to evolve into a lifted finish of baked-apple and confectionary spices.

Winemaker

Michael Acurso

March budbreak and a near-perfect summer produced balanced and nuance wine in 2022.

The 2022 growing season began mildly with budbreak in March. By May, vines showed strong shoot growth and average yields ahead of mid-July veraison. Near-perfect summer weather allowed for the harvest of Russian River Chardonnay in mid-September, providing extended vine time. This even ripening resulted in nuanced, balanced wine.
