Like a secret code unlocked by our winemakers, The Key embodies everything that we know about making great Chardonnay.

Wildcat Mountain Vineyard Chardonnay always delivers something special and unique, and this vintage is no exception. Both intricate and exotic, this wine begins with alluring aromas of Asian pear and fragrant orange blossom.

The grapes for this Chardonnay came exclusively from Wildcat Mountain Vineyard, owned by Steve MacRostie and his partners Nancy and Tony Lilly. At Wildcat, the vines dig into the sparse volcanic soil and stand firm against the strong winds that race in off of the Pacific Ocean most afternoons. 

Beautiful aromas of tropical fruit, melon and perfumed lemon mingle with hints of slate.

This Chardonnay has a refreshing first impression in the aroma of fresh cut pineapple fruit with just a touch of grassiness.

The first impression of the aromas is one of exotic complexity, with classic citrus layers and tropical notes of star fruit, mango and lychee. On the palate, the complex aromas give way to crisp and bright Meyer lemon flavors that glide to a long, giving finish.
