Chalone Vineyard is located on the west-side of Pinnacles National Park, in Central California. The Pinot Noir comes from 13 rows of the 667 Pinot Noir clone in the Vista 6-Block, at about 1,200’ elevation, plus or minus 100’ due to the rolling hills throughout the block. The Chardonnay comes from an older block of the vineyard planted in 1960 in rolling hills at 1,600 feet of elevation. The soil composition is unique to the Chalone area and is comprised of a high amount of limestone.
