Perched in the remote Gavilan Mountain Range, 1,800 feet above California's Salinas Valley, Chalone's rugged vineyard sits at the base of an extinct volcano bordering the Pinnacles National Monument. Chalone Vineyard is one of the few wineries in the U.S. growing grapes in limestone-based soils, the same as in Burgundy. The spare, well-drained ground, limited rainfall and low crop levels attracted Dick Graff, who wanted to make top-flight Burgundian-styled Chardonnay. Graff made his first vintage under the Chalone Vineyard label in 1966, producing what became a benchmark for California Chardonnay.

Today, Chalone continues to focus on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. They also produce limited amounts of Pinot Blanc, Chenin Blanc and Syrah. All of these estate wines are grown and bottled at the estate, meaning Chalone maintains control of everything from vine to bottle.

Wine Spectator 92 Points

Exhibits a complex mix of subtle pear, mineral, pleasant earthy notes and floral scents. Tight and full-bodied, ending with a long, persistent finish. Drink now through 2012.—J.L.
