Alpha Omega, located along the iconic Highway 29 in Rutherford, is known for its polished and powerful expressions of Napa Valley terroir. Since its founding in 2006, the winery has become a standard-bearer for modern Napa winemaking, blending traditional techniques with state-of-the-art technology. This Chardonnay, crafted from a blend of sites across Napa Valley—including cooler climate vineyards in Oak Knoll and Carneros—offers both richness and vibrancy, shaped by judicious oak use and extended lees contact.
-
WINEMAKER: Jean Hoefliger
-
FARMING: Sustainable
-
VARIETY: 100% Chardonnay
-
TERROIR: Sourced from premium vineyard sites across Napa Valley, including Oak Knoll and Carneros AVAs. These regions bring a balance of warm days and cool nights, with diverse soils including clay, loam, and volcanic ash, contributing structure and complexity.
-
VINIFICATION: Whole cluster pressed. Fermented in 100% French oak barrels (50% new) with native and inoculated yeasts.
-
AGING: Aged 16 months in 100% French oak barrels (50% new), with weekly bâtonnage for 4 months.
-
TASTING NOTES: Aromas of lemon curd, jasmine, and toasted brioche open to a layered palate of golden apple, crème brûlée, and almond skin. Rich and silky in texture, lifted by bright acidity and a lingering mineral finish.
-
FOOD PAIRINGS: Roast chicken with tarragon, seared scallops, sweet corn risotto, crab cakes with aioli.
