Crafted from the prized old vine Wente clone block at Walker Hill Vineyard—one of the most iconic sites within Dutton Ranch—this Chardonnay is a shining example of Green Valley elegance and Russian River Valley complexity. Perched 500 feet above Purrington Creek on classic Goldridge soils, Walker Hill is farmed by fifth-generation grower Steve Dutton and has been a cornerstone of Dutton Ranch Chardonnay since 2006. Aged 18 months in French oak with 100% malolactic and stirred lees, the wine’s bright acidity and subtle barrel influence showcase the verve and purity that define Dutton Ranch’s finest coastal sites.
