Sherwood House Vineyards 1999 Chardonnay is an estate-grown top quality wine, crafted in the Burgundian style from only the gentle first press, which produces juice with the highest aroma and intensity. The exceptionally dry, hot 1999 growing season was the best that Long Island's North Fork vineyards had experienced in nearly two decades. However, just as many growers were readying to reap its benefits, heavy rains, and Hurricane Floyd arrived. Much of this precious crop of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes was lost. The few North Fork vineyards that survived this natural disaster, like Sherwood House Vineyards, were blessed with grapes that had gained a remarkable finishing touch of maturity from the storms. You'll share the magic of the vineyards and this remarkable vintage year when you sip this elegant, well-balanced wine.
