Madrona Chardonnay
The History
The Madrona wine all started by a pioneer who found an
exceptional landscape that is divestible to the hillside vine
yard, which was located in El Dorado, California in 1973. It
was originally founded by the Senior Bush who wanted to
create this unique wine that has great acidity with perfect
balance to create this comfort when drinking the wine. This
authentic wine was discovered from a 350 year old Madrona tree, which represented the location to grow the best terroir of the Madrona vineyards. These Madrona trees are
found in the greatest growing regions through El Dorado,
Sierra Foothills AVAs.

Tasting Note
Madrona Chardonnay is an elegant and complex wine with no
one aroma or flavor dominating. Traditional Burgundian barrel
fermentation is neatly married with cool tank fermentation, both
of which are kept ‘sur lie’ un l close to bottling. The selected level
of malolactic secondary fermentation de pends on the vintage —
the goal always being a wine exhibiting exceptional acid balance
and a crisp, lingering finish.
