The Goods
The lively, citrusy Chardonnay bursts with lemon and melon, showing viscosity and pronounced acidity. Mineral-driven yet clean, Mr. Hickenbothom is a mystery, like forgetting a friend’s name yet enjoying their company. Unpredictable yet familiar, this wine brings both complexity and simplicity.

The Con
Have you ever forgotten someone's name and felt embarrassed to ask them? Well, in situations like that, we tend to come up with alternative names to refer to them, such as Whozit or Whatstherename. Similarly, in the case of a Chardonnay wine that we cannot seem to make the same way every year, we give it a fun and unique name, Mr. Hickenbothom. This allows us to refer to it without worrying about the specifics of its production process. It’s like having a nickname for a friend who has a complicated name, and although we hope to one day discover its true name, we enjoy the mystery and unpredictability that Mr. Hickenbothom brings to our lives.

The Shakedown
My dear reader, worry not about the oak, for herein lies no wooden slumber. This lively libation was raised in vessels of shining steel, not an oaken cask to steal its zest! So cast aside assumptions of barrel-aged boast, these wines boast only stainless mettle
