CT had no info on this wine, and no community tasting notes. Nothing came up on my Google search either. Does anyone have any experience with this wine?

My google search wasn't much more informative, although I did find out the wine maker has 14 years experience with Coca-Cola. I do like coke. The Mexican variety you get at costco especially.
Joseph Henry is a brand created by the owners of Sapphire Hill. It is currently sold in fine restaurants in California and this is it's Woot debut to the home market. We crafted this Chardonnay to be crisp and floral (a departure from Sapphire Hill rich caramel Chardonnay). We have received very positive feedback, especially from our customers that prefer a stainless crisp styled Chardonnay.

Wow, Chris, you are one early riser, or late home from the party. Thanks for checking in on what has been pretty quiet here. Lacking a Vintner Voicemail, can you tell us anything about your process? Stainless is mentioned for fermentation, any wood cooperage used for aging, or pure stainless? I'm wondering if the Viognier may have seen some wood to add a bit of interest or enhance the aromatics. Is the TA: 48g a typo? ML? Are you familiar with Iron Horse unoaked Chard? Perhaps a comparison, as many of us sampled Joy's wines. Woot! used to give us a little rocket ship so we knew when there was a product launch and we could get things going. Looks like that was lost during the 'troubles' as well. Welcome!
What about the grapes? California is a pretty big AVA.
Winery Joseph Henry Wine Founded: 2029 Perhaps this is the future of California winemaking?

It's quite simple, really. In the future time travel is as much taken for granted as there being that 'homeless' guy outside of your favorite corner store that dresses better than you and I do. Since they didn't go out of their way to either obscure the real vintage or to ask that we respect the confidentiality so that we don't adversely alter history, that was the Careless Whisper of a time traveler. But now who's gonna dance with future me? Please stay.

Thanks for the feedback I don't have my lab sheet with me but ta seems a typo. The wine is all stainless fermented and stored. As for IronHorse, they produce a really nice Chardonnay, as I recall theirs may have a slight more minerality and Joseph Henry may be more green apple. Would love to have Joseph Henry in a flight tasting with your favorite unpacked Chardonnays.
Klez or Sparky, wanna do a split?
