Truchard Vineyard lies in the heart of Carneros, prized for its rolling hills, sun exposure and cool, breezy conditions that allow long, even ripening. Nickel and Nickel makes wine from eight select sections of this 270-acre vineyard, composed of volcanic ash and rock with a southwestern exposure. The growing season tends to be long in this cooler area, allowing for fully mature fruit at harvest.
The 2024 Truchard Chardonnay is bright and expressive, offering lifted aromas of white peach, pear blossom, and a hint of citrus. On the palate, the fruit is pure and focused, carried by a supple texture that brings shape and glide without weight. Subtle oak frames the wine with finesse, supporting a long, energetic finish.
