Jaimee Motley Wines 'Massa Vineyard' Chenin Blanc 2023

Jaimee Motley’s work in Monterey’s Massa Vineyard highlights her commitment to site-driven winemaking. The vineyard’s cool, foggy mornings and warm afternoons produce Chenin Blanc with both vibrancy and richness, while careful vineyard practices preserve the grape’s natural acidity and aromatic complexity.

Varietal: 100% Chenin Blanc from Massa Vineyard, Carmel Valley, California. Grapes are whole-cluster pressed, fermented with native yeasts in neutral vessels, and aged briefly on lees for added texture and weight without diminishing freshness.

Tasting Notes: Golden apple, chamomile, and subtle stone fruit aromas introduce a medium-bodied, textured wine. The palate is layered with delicate spice, gentle minerality, and bright acidity, creating a Chenin that bridges Old World restraint and New World generosity.
