Osmote Seneca Lake Chardonnay 2024

A focused, cool-climate Chardonnay from New York’s Finger Lakes, sourced from Seneca Lake vineyards where glacial soils and lake effect influence create natural freshness and tension. The region’s long growing season and cool nights help preserve acidity while allowing steady, even ripening.

Fruit is hand-harvested and gently pressed, then fermented with native yeasts to emphasize site expression and varietal clarity. A portion of the wine is typically aged in neutral oak, with the remainder kept in stainless steel to balance texture and purity.

The result is a precise, mineral-leaning Chardonnay marked by crisp orchard fruit, citrus peel, and subtle floral lift. Clean and linear with quiet depth, it reflects both the restraint of the winemaking and the distinctive character of Seneca Lake.
