“2020 produced a beautifully expressive Chardonnay from our Los Carneros Estate. The boisterous bouquet invites you in with lively aromas of warm Asian pear, Meyer lemon, crème brûlée and baking spices, supported by more subtle notes of brioche toast, a nod to the well-integrated French Oak. Fresh, vibrant and mouthwatering, the palate is crisp with layers of stone fruit, honeycomb, caramelized brown sugar and candied citrus, backed up by a luscious texture that is rich and balanced, a result of the delicate batonnage lees stirring that occurs during the winemaking process. Maintaining a core of fresh acidity, this Chardonnay is graceful, elegant, and full of depth with a lengthy satisfying finish.”

“The 2020 Shadybrook Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is grown on our Estate vineyard located in Coombsville tucked on a southeast facing hillside in the Napa Valley. This fog cooled vineyard imbues aromas of crème de cassis, rose petal, worn leather undertones, and an exciting umami quality. Fresh acidity wraps around fine-grained tannins revealing a crushed rock minerality, while concentrated layers of anise, coffee bean, graham cracker, and toasted oak delightfully melt onto the palate. This is the flagship wine for Shadybrook Estate Winery and a true expression of the Coombsville Estate vineyard, and the timeless value of wines made to last.”
