The year was 1924. It was the heart of the Prohibition Era and wine’s darkest hour when it was outlawed and deemed unconstitutional. It was also the year the Delicato family first planted vineyards in California and farmed grapes that were sold to friends and neighbors.
A cool blanket slips into the area at night keeping the vineyard temperatures mild in the morning as the day heats up. The warm inland valley allows for generous heat during the peak summer months, ideal conditions to craft this full-bodied Chardonnay.
