The Story

The Hendry Vineyard is located on benchlands just west of the town of Napa. The Chardonnay vines grow on thin,
stony soils between 200 and 300 feet above sea level. The vineyard is at the intersection of the cooler Carneros
appellation and the greater Napa Valley, which becomes warmer as you travel northward. Morning fog and
afternoon breezes from the San Pablo Bay moderate the climate, giving us long, warm summer days and cooler
nights.
The Barrel Fermented Chardonnay is whole-cluster pressed and then cold-settled. It is barrel fermented sur lie and
aged in French oak barrels for 11 months, without racking, undergoing frequent battonage, or stirring, in the barrels.
Approximately one-third of the barrels are new each year. The Barrel Fermented Chardonnay does not undergo any
malolactic fermentation, which is important for retaining its food-friendly acidity.

About Hendry

Brand Story

George Hendry and his family have grown grapes on the same family farm in Napa Valley since 1939. Through more than eighty years of harvests, our connection to the land has deepened, and our knowledge has grown. Hendry Ranch is composed of 203 acres situated in the low, rolling hills just northwest of Napa, at the foot of Mt. Veeder, and includes 114 acres under vine. This location in the valley experiences substantial marine influence, allowing us to grow more than a dozen different types of wine grapes. All Hendry wines are made only from estate grapes, and are crafted to highlight the unique terroir of this very special vineyard.
