2009 Darioush Signature Chardonnay * Napa Valley

Vintage after vintage, the consistently cool climates of Darioush’s Southern Napa Valley estates, and the historically-renowned Chardonnay vineyards of Hudson Ranch, Las Amigas and Muir, conspire to produce wines with character, complexity and classicism. Seamlessly integrated layers of ripe stone fruits, vibrant citrus and mineral tones maintain precision and delicacy, both hallmarks of the Darioush style. Signature Chardonnay offers classic richness paired with uncommon flavor density— promising further evolution over time.

2009 Darioush Signature Pinot Noir * Russian River Valley

Signature Pinot Noir is grown in Russian River along the highly acclaimed ‘Gold Ridge’ soil series on Vine Hill Road. We are fond of this locale as it yields wines with the keenly defined structure and multi-layered flavor truly representative of the heart of the Russian River Valley appellation. Equally old-world in tradition, a large portion of the berries are whole cluster fermented in open top tanks to encourage fruit complexity and spice-oriented aromatics.

2009 Darioush Signature Viognier * Napa Valley

Our estate grown Viognier derives its unique style from a four-acre vineyard site in the Oak Knoll appellation.

The fruit, and resulting wine, is minimally handled to express its pure and fragrant nature.
