Duckhorn Chardonnay Toyon Vineyard 2014 Bottle:1 is a privately held DutchThis Chardonnay comes from a prized block of Toyon Vineyard in the northeast corner of Carneros. Protected from the wind and with a south facing exposure, Toyon is a relatively warm site, where light clay soils produce small clusters of flavorful berries.
