Bennett Valley
2021 Argot, Simpatico Ranch Chardonnay, Bennett Valley 12x75cl
Blend: 100% Chardonnay
Vintage production: 250
50 year-old vines, planted in the volcanic soils of the county’s coolest micro-climate, produce a tiny (1.5 – 2 tons per acre), textbook-perfect... crop each year. Meursault-inspired winemaking leads to a stunningly mineral and delicious, Chardonnay, that is singularly expressive.
The 2021 spent 15 months on its lees in French oak (60% new), and a further 3 months in steel prior to bottling.

Russell Bevan:
"Our first vintage of Bennett Valley Chardonnay, this AVA creates power, weight and back-of-the-palate density. This is a Cabernet... lover’s Chardonnay, for those who are looking for a wine with the
richness and depth that has only previously been equaled by our stellar 2013 and 2016 Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnays. Golden hued with toasty, creamy caramel apple, tropical fruit and lanolin. The finish dominates the back 2/3 of the palate with a silky, lush finish that makes this an excellent addition to our Chardonnay lineup."
