The 2016 Chardonnay The Jester Fallenleaf Vineyard is a gorgeous wine that shows the Ernest style at its best. Lemon confit, crushed flowers, slate, white pepper and chalk are all laced together in a brilliant, nuanced Chardonnay that hits all the right notes.

This is really something here...92 point chardonnay brilliance for the price of a Gotts burger and fries. These powerful half bottles are perfect for packing and offer some of the best value for the money on our site! $14! Fallenleaf vineyard is located on the top of the Eastern slope of the Sonoma ridge overlooking the town of Sonoma planted to Old Wente clone chardonnay. It also happens to be in a world-class neighborhood, right next door to th illustrious Hanzell! This is a real peach of a site that creates wines of intensity and elegance, shimmering acids and super complex, long wines. The wine is named after owner Erin Brooks' late father, he shared a personality to a jester and always elevated peoples spirits and was always ready to engage his heart and mind with a gift for making people feel better. The Jester pays tribute to his legacy.
About the Producer
Since we know you're wondering: Yes, there was a man named Ernest. He was an entrepreneur, a risk-taker and a role model for his grandson, Todd Gottula, who founded our winery with his wife, Erin Brooks, back in 2012. Today, the "Ernest" in our name stands for more than one man. It's about integrity in the fruit we use and the people we know. It's about restraint, about how ego drives nothing we do.
