There are just 400 to 500 cases of the 2021 Chardonnay Hope’s Cuvee, a riveting
Napa Valley Chardonnay from this team that’s just about as good as it gets. Seeing
partial malolactic fermentation and aging in 50% new French oak, it tastes like a
great Montrachet with its ripe lemon, spicy wood, honeysuckle, and white flower
aromatics. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has a concentrated, textured style,
beautiful balance, and a great finish. If you get a chance to try a bottle, don’t miss it.
It should keep for a decade.

It greets the senses with enticing aromas of citrus blossom, ripe pear, and a hint of toasted almond, leading to a rich, creamy palate that harmonizes bright acidity with layers of stone fruit, vanilla, and subtle oak, finishing with a lingering, refined grace.
About the Producer
Signorello Estate is a renowned winery located in the Napa Valley region of California. Established by Ray Signorello Jr. in 1985, the winery quickly gained acclaim for its commitment to producing high-quality, Bordeaux-style wines. The estate's vineyards are situated on the Silverado Trail, a prime location in Napa known for its exceptional grape-growing conditions. Unfortunately, in October 2017, the winery fell victim to the devastating wildfires that swept through Northern California. The fires destroyed the winery's facilities and much of its wine inventory. Despite this setback, the Signorello family has shown resilience and determination to rebuild and continue their winemaking legacy. The history of Signorello Winery reflects both the challenges faced by Napa Valley and the strength of its winemaking community.
