Second Course
“Just for the Halibut” :: 2023 Chardonnay

(this chardonnay’s fruit is picked in the cool of night to ensure it reaches the winery in pristine condition, so we are plating a bright white fish atop the dark accoutrement. We will ask the guests to put on a blindfold when we serve the second course, explain the harvest process, then they’ll remove the blindfold to enjoy.)
