Patz & Hall was founded in 1988 by Donald Patz, James Hall, Anne Moses and Heather Patz. Together, they have created one of California's most highly regarded wineries, with a celebrated portfolio of single-vineyard Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wines.. For over 25 years, they have remained committed to handcrafting small-lot and single-vineyard wines, with an exclusive focus on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Produced using grapes from storied vineyards in the Napa Valley, Russian River Valley, Mendocino County, Sonoma Coast and Santa Lucia Highlands, these benchmark wines embody thei passionate approach to winemaking, and the diversity of world-class California winegrowing. Look for sophisticated, vivid flavors of pear, apple, green summer melon, Muscat, lavender, mineral and toasted hazelnut. Seamlessly integrated French oak adds a hint of vanilla to the long, fresh finish.

The 2018 offering is a collection of fourteen single-vineyard quality sites that could all be bottled on their own including; Dutton Ranch, Sanchietti Vineyard, Gap’s Crown Vineyard, Zio Tony Ranch and Durell Vineyard. The wine has inviting aromas of spicy pear, lemon drop and lime zest. As a cool-climate Chardonnay, there’s a nice tartness on the palate giving the wine great poise, balance and energy. A pretty floral note adds a layer of complexity and melds with the peach nectar and apple flavors on the long finish.
