Seavey Chardonnay 2020
Refreshingly light, with aromas of honeydew, fresh lemon, pineapple, and lime leaf, our 2020 Chardonnay is a delight to drink. Finishing with a gentle top note of butterscotch, toasted almond, and vanilla, this wine has pleasingly balanced acidity, showing off a slight weightiness with an extended finish. One-third of this Chardonnay vintage was fermented in a concrete egg which allows for a constant intermixing of the lees adding depth, volume, texture, drawing out the subtlest elements of the wine, including its unique minerality

Seavey Vineyard
"Seavey is one of the great, unheralded, under-the-radar terroirs in all of Napa Valley." -Robert Parker, Jr.
Seavey Vineyard's steep, rocky hillsides produce small, thick-skinned berries with outstanding tannins with which winemaker Jim Duane creates masterful, soulful wines that exude a sense of place and age gracefully for several decades. We have never purchased a grape and our wines do not leave the premises until they are in the bottle.
Our primary goal is to produce legendary 20-30 year-old Cabernets that grow increasingly layered and complex over time. We are also known for producing a coveted Merlot that is known for its salinity and minerality. Our wine library maintains wine from each vintage produced since 1990.
“There are no shortcuts in the vineyard. Our wine’s best friend is time, with patience being a gift you give to yourself.” - William A. Seavey
