Pax Mahle has been winemaker for Wilde Farm Wines since 2012, and has served as mentor and incubator for a growing roster of now-established North Coast winemakers. The Alder Springs Chardonnay comes from extremely low-yielding vines, and is a captivating showing of Mendocino Chardonnay. While already flashy, waxy and precise throughout, there is a precision and seriousness here that will compound over the coming years and produce a truly fantastic wine.
