Matt Iaconis Chardonnay Napa Valley 2015
About the wine
Napa Chardonnay from this exact vineyard block sells for $40+
- This Chardonnay is grown in granite soils 1800 feet above sea level where it's 6-7 degrees cooler than the valley floor, so grapes ripen slowly and maintain their crisp brightness and a great fruit focus.
- You don't have to spend an arm and a leg to make great Napa Chard. If you work with a vineyard like this at a high elevation, and with 25th-generation grape growers like the Antinoris, you can create a really unique wine without all the expensive stuff.
- You want a good wine from Napa to impress your friends who only drink white – Matt's is it.
Best before
It will be great upon release and will continue to improve over the next 5+ years.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Matt Iaconis
- This rocket scientist was studying to be an astronaut before he decided wine was even cooler than space. So he dropped aeronautics and picked up a degree in winemaking from UC Davis.
- And he dropped conventional distribution just as quickly! When he saw the power of Angel funding, he immediately signed up, eager to create better wines at better prices.
- Angel funding allows this hugely talented and driven individual to apply all his attention to making the best wine possible. Whether he’s keeping it classic with big, bold Cabernet or putting a fresh, vibrant spin on traditional whites, you freed Matt to make show-stopping wines for an incredibly delicious price.
