Founded in the 1970's by Fred Furth and now a tendril of Bill Foley's Family Wines, a group of over 50 wines and spirits, Chalk Hill's holdings number nearly 300 planted acres of super-prime Sonoma vineyards. Somehow, they still run things as a family farm, utilizing sustainable viticulture. Their lauded Estate Red is aged in French oak, 60% new, for 20 months before bottling. It's one intense box of chocolates.
