2023 Tribute Chardonnay
This Chardonnay, complex and rich in flavor is a Tribute to our beloved father and husband Bruce Simpson. A quiet, kind, and humble leader with perseverance and ambition, he was a pioneer in winemaking and viticulture on the Leelanau Peninsula. Without his efforts over the past thirty years, the wine industry on the Leelanau Peninsula would not be where it is today.
