The GC Chardonnay (GC – Gary Charles) is attributed to all the knowledge we have been able to extract from Gary to create a close planted / high-density planting of chardonnay on an exposed côte. These hillsides facing North, North East, and East will be the backbone of the Farr dynasty for decades to come.

The fruit is hand-picked and then whole-bunch-pressed in the winery. All the solids are collected and chilled before being put into barrel, which is 50 percent new French oak. A natural fermentation will occur at cool temperatures over the next one to two months, and then a small amount of stirring helps start malolactic fermentation. The wine is then racked, fined, and lightly filtered before bottling 11 months after picking. A complete chardonnay.
