In the early 1960s, Joe and Alice Heitz envisioned crafting the most distinguished Chardonnay in Napa Valley. They learned under legends like Fred and Eleanor McRea from Stony Hill Vineyards up on Spring Mountain. With those ambitious goals in mind, we carry on their legacy through the expression of the Quartz Creek Vineyard Chardonnay. Situated at the foothills of the Mayacamas Mountains and blanketed by the morning fog from the Petaluma Gap, this site continues to produce our most elegant and refined expression of Chardonnay. Always sustainably farmed and vinified in the classic style to evoke the purest characteristics of the land where the grapes are grown.

Vintage Notes from the Winemaker

" The 2020 Quartz Creek Chardonnay is bright, vibrant, and elegant. Beautiful aromas of Meyer Lemon, Hazelnut, and Calla Lily jump out of the glass, making this the perfect pairing for summer. "

- Brittany Sherwood, Director of Winemaking

Wine Pairings from the Estate Director

" The balance of texture and freshness we see in the 2020 Quartz Creek is rare in Chardonnay. This harmony allows for versatility at the table. The vibrancy of fresh citrus on the palate is outstanding with chilled seafood like Dungeness Crab and Razor Clams. Still, there is enough texture and savory characteristics to pair with classic Chicken Marsala. "

Tangy green-apple and mineral intensity is tempered by richer golden apple and baking spice flavors in this nervy, well-balanced, light-bodied wine. tastes refreshing and mouthwatering. — Jim Gordon
