Covenant Description
2020 marks the twelfth vintage for Covenant Chardonnay Lavan. The wine is made from grapes grown in a small vineyard on Sonoma Mountain. We began working with this vineyard -- called Scopus -- back in 2010, when we made a small amount of Chardonnay for the vineyard’s owners. We liked the wine so much, that we decided to make Scopus Vineyard the core of our Lavan program the next year. The wine is rich in mineral and citrus flavors and reminds us of what great white Burgundy tastes like!
The high-altitude, north-facing Scopus Vineyard harnesses a blend of lush California flavor tempered with cool-climate structure hanging on firm acidity and moderate body. Stone fruit, citrus and spice come to mind on the palate, all marked by the vineyard’s classic mineral core. There’s a modest hint of toasty oak framing the ensemble, which ends long and fresh
