chardonnay
A properly ripened Chardonnay grape is full of fruit with a minerally foundation and just the right amount of acidity. To achieve this, vines must be grown on mineral rich soils in cool areas. Medlock Ames' mountainside location provides the perfect conditions. We have planted Chardonnay on the lowest portion of the vineyard. Here, cool air is trapped as it descends from the upper slopes of Bell Mountain and pours out of the higher elevations of the Chalk Hill appellation. The trapped air retains lower temperatures later into the afternoon, providing an environment these vines love.
