Description
The Charles Smith Eve Chardonnay is a 100% Chardonnay from Washington State. The Eve is a typical Chardonnay, dry, creamy and smooth. Showing Asian pears, crisp apple and lemon curd with a good minerality and also a good acidity that nicely balances this American Chardonnay. Eve is pure, seductive and unmistakably Washington State. With fresh, fruity flavors and a fresh, bright mouthfeel that is reminiscent of the famous apples of Washington State, this dry Chardonnay has won awards.
Very pretty aromas of freshly cut apple, grape skin and white flowers lead to a palate full of clean, rounded fruit flavors. It's a spot-on example of the variety that shows no apparent new oak influence. — Sean P. Sullivan, Wine Enthusiast February 2017
Giving up plenty of citrus blossom, white peach, and apple fruit, the 2014 Charles Smith Chardonnay, Eve, is medium-bodied, nicely textured, and balanced, with top-notch purity and nicely integrated acidity — Jeb Dunnuck, The Wine Advocate June 2016
About Charles Smith
Charles’ knowledge and respect for ancient winemaking techniques combined with his involvement in the way people drink wine is what makes his wines so unique. His red wines undergo a long maceration on the skins, without racking after malolactic fermentation. This allows for a longer time on the lees, which increases the mouthfeel. For the white wines, he forgoes battonage, and they are vinified and filtered for stability. The playful labels have been celebrated from the day they were released. Artistic, iconic and instantly recognizable. The concepts reference wine flavors and pairings, and each original artwork is a collaboration between Charles and long-time friend, artist Rikke Korff.
Few winemakers have a story quite like Charles Smith. Although born and raised an hour’s drive from Napa Valley, CA, Charles didn’t discover his love for wine until he moved to Europe. While living abroad, he fronted a number of rock bands, including the famous Danish duo The Raveonettes. It was the eating and drinking of a rock ‘n’ roll life on the road that ignited Charles’ passion for fine wine.
In 1999, while on a road trip to Walla Walla, WA, Charles met a winemaker who convinced him to make his own wine, true to his own story and vision. And in 2001, Charles released 330 cases of his first vintage. Eight years later, he was named Winemaker of the Year by Food & Wine magazine and again in 2014 by Wine Enthusiast.

A MAN AND A PASSION
There are few winemakers with a story like Charles Smith. Although he was born and raised an hour's drive from Napa Valley, CA, Charles didn't discover his love for wine until he moved to Europe. While living abroad, he led a number of rock bands, including the famous Danish duo The Raveonettes. It was the food and drink of a rock 'n' roll life along the way that sparked Charles' passion for fine wine.
In 1999, on a road trip to Walla Walla, WA, Charles met a winemaker who convinced him to start making his own wine, true to his own story and vision. And in 2001, Charles released 330 cases of his first vintage. Eight years later, he was named Winemaker of the Year by Food & Wine magazine and again in 2014 by Wine Enthusiast.
LAND AT HAND. VINEYARD TO BOTTLE.
Charles' knowledge of and respect for old-world winemaking techniques, combined with his dedication to how people actually drink wine, is what makes his wines so unique. His red wines undergo a prolonged maceration on the skin, without stretching after malolactic fermentation is complete. This allows for a longer time on the lees, increasing the mouthfeel. For whites, he waives battonage, and they are fined and filtered for stability. And as soon as they're ready to drink, Charles says, drink it the way you want it.
In 2008, Charles Smith Wines was recognized by Wine & Spirits magazine as one of the "Best New Wineries of the Last Ten Years" and as "Winery of the Year" in its annual buying guide. In 2009, Charles was named "Winemaker of the Year" by Food & Wine magazine; in 2010, Seattle Magazine recognized Charles as "Winemaker of the Year"; and in 2014, Wine Enthusiast also named him "Winemaker of the Year."
