Joyce Winery was founded in 1986 by Russell Joyce's father, who planted a small vineyard in Carmel Valley, California. Russell, a self-taught winemaker, has since transformed the winery into a sustainable operation, recently expanding by acquiring and revitalizing the old Ventana Winery in Soledad, all while adhering to organic and terroir-focused winemaking practices.

The fruit for this Chardonnay was harvested from the Escolle Vineyard located at the Northern end of the Santa Lucia Highlands. This site is impeccably farmed by the Caraccioli Family, who are incredible stewards of the their land. Low water usage translates into low yields of intense fruit full of flavor and acidity. The strong marine influence and well drained gravely loam soils of Chular deliver Chardonnay fruit that showcases both the power and finesse of the Santa Lucia Highlands.
