2022wild yeast chardonnay
Full-bodied and lush, yet never heavy, our Wild Yeast Chardonnay
shows off flavors of ripe pear and melon with butterscotch and
hazelnut notes balanced by oak spice and bright acidity. This is a wildly
expressive wine that will reward a few years of patient cellaring. The
grapes are fermented using only indigenous or “wild” yeast cultures
found on the skins of the grapes themselves, in the vineyards and
within the walls of our winery.
Miner is a dynamic family-owned winery tucked along the eastern hills of the
Oakville appellation in the heart of Napa Valley. Founded in 1998 by Dave
and Emily Miner, Miner Family Winery crafts reserve-style wines by sourcing
fruit from Napa Valley and other specially selected California vineyards.
Our winemaking team uses a combination of old world winemaking
techniques and modern technology to make wines that reflect the unique
characteristics of individual vineyards or “terroir” where specific varietals
grow best. This fusion of superb vineyard sites and thoughtful winemaking
allows Miner to deliver elegant, expressive wines.
