ABOUT THE WINE
The Vineyards
This Chardonnay is a wonderful combination of three of our select vineyards: Lavender Hill in Carneros, Crossroads Ranch in Oakville and P&J Vineyard, located along the Napa River. All of these vineyards bring their own quality to the blend ? the Carneros fruit has intense character and a wonderful fragrant tropical nose. The grapes from Crossroads Ranch and P&J Vineyard benefit from their locations near Conn Creek and the Napa River, with afternoon breezes and cool morning fogs producing an ideal environment conducive to growing rich Chardonnay grapes.

Winemaker's Notes
Flora Springs Barrel Fermented Chardonnay is Napa Valley history in a bottle. In 1980, at a time when Chardonnay was a true ambassador for wines from the New World, Flora Springs began its reign as one of the great C h a rdonnay producers from Napa Valley. Regardless of wine trends, Flora Springs continues to craft its Barrel Fermented Chardonnay in a style that has inspired both white wine producers and Chardonnay connoisseurs for the last 26 years. The 2006 vintage offers rich flavors of peach and pear with a hint of pineapple on the palate. Due to the considerable richness that is inherent in our f ruit, this wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation. We choose to highlight the bright acidity available in our Chardonnay to create a delicious wine that can pair beautifully with food or simply be enjoyed alone.

ECOLOGICALLY RESPECTFUL WINE
Biodynamic
Biodynamic agiculture is the oldest consciously organic approach to farming and gardening and is one of the most sustainable in existence. It is founded on a holistic and spiritual understanding of nature and the human being and builds on the pioneering research work of Rudolf Steiner, an Austrian philosopher, scientist and social reformer who sought to extend scientifin research beyond the existing parameters of natural science and investigate the non-physical, spiritual realities of life.
