“This plush white is filled with red peach and apple pastry flavors that are buttery and well-spiced, ending with a fruity finish that is spicy and rich-tasting. Drink now through 2025. 680 cases made.”

Highlights

2018 grown on limestone-rich soils at 2,200 feet on Mt. Harlan. Aromas of white peach, honeysuckle, lavender, lemon verbena and sea salt; palate rich and round with lively underlying acidity and flavors of guava, pineapple, vanilla bean and nectarine, finishing with a pronounced limestone-mineral and toast streak.

Calera Mt. Harlan Chardonnay 2018

Grown high on the limestone-rich soils of Mt. Harlan, this wine is an aromatic beauty, revealing layers of white peach, fresh-cut grass, lavender and lemon verbena. Though rich and round on the palate, its cool-climate origins ensure a lively underlying acidity that provides focus and finesse to tropical flavors of guava, pineapple and vanilla bean.

Critical Acclaim

94 Wine Enthusiast

Light aromas of honeysuckle, sea salt, white peach and nectarine show on the nose of this classic bottling, from a 2,200-foot-high vineyard. There is a strong streak of limestone flavor to the sip, with warmer hints of white peach and toast.

We also acquire bottles from select private collections where clear and documented provenance is provided, ensuring a verifiable history for our finest items.

Yes, in most cases, the photograph on the product page is of the specific bottle for sale. If we have multiple quantities of the same item, the photo represents the general condition of all bottles under that SKU. Any significant condition issues, such as low ullage or bin-stained labels, will be clearly noted in the product description.

For wine, we recommend storing bottles on their side in a dark, vibration-free environment with good humidity, ideally between 55-60°F. Spirits like whiskey should be stored upright in a cool, dark place (60-70°F) away from direct sunlight to preserve their quality.
