2024 Freemark Abbey Chardonnay Napa Valley 12pk 12x750ml

Freemark Abbey has been crafting single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon in Napa Valley since 1886, when Josephine Tychson built the original redwood cellar and became California's first female vintner. The winery competed in the legendary Judgment of Paris blind tasting with both a red and a white—the only producer represented twice. Today it remains one of Napa's most venerated houses, known above all for the Bosche Vineyard Cabernet, one of California's earliest vineyard-designate wines and still among the winery's most coveted bottlings.

This 2024 Napa Valley Chardonnay comes from that same legacy—138 years of winemaking discipline applied to one of California's signature white grapes. Napa Chardonnay at this level delivers the richness and texture that built the region's reputation, with enough brightness to keep it from turning into a fruit bomb.

The nose opens with pear, mandarine, tuberose, vanilla and oak spice. The palate shows brioche, apple pie, lemon curd and fresh pineapple, with a creamy texture reminiscent of creme brulee and a bright, complex finish with notable length. This is 100% Chardonnay with the kind of depth and structure that separates Napa fruit from the rest.
