Stolpman Chenin Blanc 'Combe' Ballard Canyon 2018

Pete Stolpman’s esoteric Ballard Canyon project “Combe” refers to the French word for a small sheltered valley within a vineyard. Stolpman's 1.5 acres of Chenin began producing in 2016, a young but highly promising program, which Pete calls "certainly next level."

Extended barrel aging offers whiffs of flinty, gun smoke reduction and oak toast which rise aside bright citrus fruit aromatics. Razor sharp acidity zips through the generous palate. Bottled without sulfur or other additions.
