Located on the southwestern edge of the Russian River Valley appellation in an area known as the Sebastopol Hills, where cool breezes and morning fog from the nearby Bodega Bay provide a distinctive microclimate for growing high quality pinot noir and chardonnay. Paul Hobbs acquired the site in 2012 and named it in honor of the late George Menini, an admired apple rancher and former proprietor of the estate.

JEB DUNNUCK 95 POINTS - "The 2022 Chardonnay George Menini Estate comes from the Sebastopol Hills, where this vineyard was once an old apple farm. In the glass, it pours a bright silver/yellow color and is lifted and fresh on the nose, opening to notes of wet stone, dewy citrus blossoms, almonds, and fresh pear. Elegant and medium-bodied, it’s long on the palate, with delicate floral notes and hints of lemon curd through the finish. Drink 2025-2037. 675 cases were produced."

ROBERT PARKER'S WINE ADVOCATE 94 POINTS - "The 2022 Chardonnay George Menini Estate comes from Paul Hobbs's newest vineyard, planted in 2015. It was matured for 12 months, bottled in August of 2023 and tasted that November. It takes some time to reveal soft touches of beeswax and crème brûlée, quince and white peach, plus floral and saline undertones. The light-bodied palate is supple and vibrant, its crunchy, saline-driven fruit still coiled on the finish. It's a bright, focused expression reminiscent of Chablis and will benefit from 2-3+ years in bottle. 675 cases were made, and it will be released in March of 2024."
