Tasting Notes
Oaky, Buttery, and Bold.
Harken Chardonnay is 100% barrel fermented to create a rich Chardonnay with a classic profile of tropical fruit and Bosc pear alongside warm oak aromatics.
Our Story
Chardonnay, the way Chardonnay should be
Our founder, Jeff, created Harken to bring back classic California Chardonnay taste. That taste can’t be faked, so we barrel ferment, barrel age and hand stir.
We source premium grapes from premium Chardonnay growing regions. We’ve even implemented a few of Jeff’s own ingenious ideas to create a wine delicious enough to remind everyone what made Chardonnay king in the first place.
Meet the Winemaker
Adam Popp
You could say that Adam was destined to make great wine. He was born and raised in the shadow of some of some of California’s most storied Chardonnay vineyards and worked his way up through wineries in the sweeping vistas of Paso Robles.
But it’s his love of the barrel that really sets Adam apart. He’s an expert in barrel fermentation and every bottle of Harken is proof that there’s no substitute for his know-how.
California Born and Bred
We source grapes from Monterey, Clarksburg, and Paso Robles. Three regions known for growing excellent chardonnay grapes.
