Captivate Chardonnay 2023

$65

Captivate is an elegant example of a cool California vineyard that has embraced Chardonnay to produce this New World-style wine, subtle, yet striking, with an effortless grace and a perfect balance of fruit and acid.

With a golden hue kissed by hints of green, Captivate immediately draws you in. The nose is a burst of fresh pineapple, tangerine, and honeysuckle, each note more inviting than the last.

On the palate, it’s a lively, medium-bodied experience—refreshing acidity dances gracefully, while a touch of minerality adds an intriguing complexity.

The finish is as crisp and zesty as a morning breeze, leaving a satisfying, lingering taste that calls for just one more sip. It’s the kind of wine that stirs the senses, offering something new with each taste, all while maintaining a sense of effortless elegance.

Captivate is a wine that speaks the language of elegance and simplicity, a delightful union of freshness and charm. With the crisp versatility of Chardonnay at its heart, it dances with the fragrant notes of Viognier, while just a whisper of Semillon adds the illusion of sweetness, tempting the senses without ever overwhelming them.

Crafted with Bill Williamson’s signature artistry in blending, this wine draws from the Chardonnay of the Chantilly Vineyard at Home Ranch Estate, with the subtle contributions of Viognier and Semillon working in perfect harmony.

The result is a wine that feels effortless, a perfect companion to any meal, and always inviting—one sip, and you’ll be captivated.
