The crown jewel of the Haynes Vineyard, the Corazon Chardonnay is sourced from the oldest vines in the vineyard. Intensely aromatic wine with minerality and density similar to great Burgundy, it is crafted from the oldest Chardonnay vines in the Napa Valley. Modeled after Burgundy of the late 80s and 90s, the wine is the ultimate expression of the vineyard.

For the first time in the long history of Haynes Vineyard, a single-vineyard, single-estate winery has been established on this legendary site. The vineyard is renowned as the crown jewel of Coombsville, possessing a combination of climate conditions and history that make its terroir entirely unique: a patchwork of soils, including diatomaceous earth and volcanic rock, an early planting of the famous Wente clone of Chardonnay, and a position as the coolest site in Coombsville. The Lawrence family is only the third family to own the vineyard, purchasing it from the Whitford/Haynes family, who bought it from Napa City founder Nathan Coombs in the late 19th century. In 1967, the Haynes family granted Andre Tchelistcheff permission to plant Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines, now the oldest in Napa Valley. The three expressions of Chardonnay from the site reflect its terroir, its story, and the people who define its character: What we grow - Vigneron, What we make - Forgeron, and What we love - Corazon. Winemaker Nico Cueva, formerly of Kosta Browne, brings these ideals to life in the vineyard and the bottle.
