Perched high above the town of Aptos and just four miles from the ocean, Trout Gulch has become one of the premier old-vine Chardonnay sources in California. This vintage, Arnot Roberts has produced a wine of intense focus, with a dialed in sense of sea breeze, pine, and freshly picked tangerine. No new oak was used in production, resulting in an experience reminiscent of drinking cult producers from Chablis only with a more soft, pure layer of fruit. An endless finish, thanks to the brilliant acidity, should lend this wine to long term aging alongside wines of Burgundy costing four times as much.
Arnot-Roberts was founded in 2001 in Healdsburg, California by childhood friends Duncan Arnot Meyers and Nathan Lee Roberts. Duncan and Nathan grew up in the midst of vineyards and winemakers in the Napa Valley. Each took an interest in the wine industry, with Nathan following his father’s lead as a cooper, and Duncan pursuing winemaking in renowned wineries in Napa and Sonoma. The focus of this two person operation is on small lot, single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir, as well as several other varieties uncommon in Northern Californian vineyards.
