Barrel to Bottle: Courtney Foley

Wine royalty visits the Barrel to Bottle studios once again. This week, it's Courtney Foley, winemaker at Chalk Hill Estate. She discusses the challenges of jumping from a 4,000 cases to a 40,000 case production facility, implementing a sparkling program across the Foley Portfolio, and what "Estate Bottled" means at Chalk Hill. We've got more hockey talk then we've ever had, too! Stick around for a customer Q&A about grape stomping.
Drink along at home with the following wines:
- Chalk Hill Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2017
- Chalk Hill Chardonnay Sonoma Coast 2017
- Chalk Hill Estate Chardonnay 2016
- Chalk Hill Pinot Noir 2016
