Spending the last 20 years charged up about how to we can redefine Chardonnay — it’s enormously rewarding to see the shift in this paradigm from one of wine’s biggest influencers across the world. Wine Spectator is finally recognizing the major pendulum swing of Chardonnay in the United States, offering Auteur a nice feature in the July Issue, “All About White Wine”. For our longtime supporters, you are aware we’ve embraced this style all along. We will always continue to craft whites that are racy, fresh and vibrant without the “lactic” buttery overtones, while nurturing our partnerships with well-farmed vineyards all along Northern California, keeping the wines true to their regionality.
