"From my experience of tasting the finest wines from around the world, I believe in harmony and elegance. These are the qualities I constantly try to capture in my wines. The ultimate goal is to create wines that are seamless and textural, with the structure and balance to complement fine cuisine.
In order to make wines of the highest caliber, I select unique vineyards that are cared for by talented vineyard managers. During the growing season, yields are restricted to achieve maximum concentration of flavor. Harvest is based on physiological ripeness, which changes depending on the vintage characteristics.
Cellar work is based on minimal intervention, cleanliness and purity of intention. Because every vintage is different, I do not believe in recipes. With due respect to science, I do believe that true artisanal winemaking is based on intuition, sensitivity and passion. Keeping lots small allows gentle handling throughout the winemaking process.
I want my wines to give pleasure and keep your palate interested until the last drop from the bottle - I hope you like them at first sip and love them at the last." ~ Winemaker Paul Lato
The 2012 Chardonnay Le Souvenir Sierra Madre Vineyard is another stunner from Lato. Spending 16 months in 65% new French oak, it offers serious minerality in its apple blossom, golden fruits, crushed rock and spice-driven profile. Focused, slightly restrained, beautifully pure and all-around pure class, it opens up beautifully with air, have integrated acidity and a crisp finish. Enjoy this beauty over the coming 3-4 years.
