2021 Moon Tsai Napa Chardonnay
We’re delighted to offer the 2021 Moon Tsai Napa Valley Chardonnay, a luxurious yet finely balanced white that exemplifies the elegance of world-class Napa Chardonnay. Moon Tsai was founded by Larry and Mary Tsai with a vision to craft limited-production wines that merge Napa Valley’s power with Old World finesse. Working with acclaimed winemaker Philippe Melka, the winery sources from top-tier vineyard sites, including the famed Hyde and Ritchie vineyards, to produce Chardonnays of depth, purity, and precision. The 2021 vintage is beautifully expressive—aromas of ripe pear, lemon curd, toasted brioche, and white peach unfold into a creamy, textured palate lifted by vibrant acidity. Subtle notes of vanilla bean, crushed stone, and hazelnut linger through a long, polished finish. Aged in French oak (a portion new), this wine strikes a sophisticated balance between richness and restraint, making it equally compelling now and over the next 5–7 years. A standout expression from one of Napa’s most meticulous producers.

2022 Kongsgaard Chardonnay 'The Judge'
John & Maggy Kongsgaard are considered royalty in wine aficionado circles, and their family operation has made a remarkable contribution to the wine world. They both grew up in Napa Valley, John's father being a Superior Court Judge with a penchant for great wine. While home on college break, it was an errand to pick up his father's prized possession of Stony Hill Chardonnay that changed the course of John's future. There, John saw what life could be like, surrounded by grapes and producing what others deem a precious commodity. He was mentored by the legendary Andre Tchelistcheff and Nathan Fay, held winemaking positions at Newton and Luna, a partnership in Arietta, and it was the planting of vines on their property that led to the historical greatness that is Kongsgaard wine. John appeared in The Robb Report's Best of the Best. Eric Asimov from the New York Times remarked, "Kongsgaard consistently makes the best Chardonnay in California today." Critics routinely comment that their Chardonnays are reminiscent of certain vintages of DRC, closely compared to a Montrachet, Corton Charlemagne, or Meursault. Today, along with their son Alex - the second half of the two-person winemaking team - they are iconic in crafting gems that invoke the senses, going far beyond the typical wine-tasting experience. This rare game-changing wine will forever alter the way you think about Napa Chardonnay and its place in the pecking order.
