Autumn 2024
Happy Thanksgiving! Wishing you a holiday filled with warmth, love, laughter, and the joy of making treasured memories with those who mean the most to you.
While you gather with friends and family to celebrate this special holiday, we wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt appreciation for your support in helping us “Pursue the Possible.” As you enjoy delectable food and charming company, we hope you will raise a glass and savor the moment. It is an honor to have a place at your table and to be part of your cherished traditions.
As we conclude our fifteenth harvest at Pulido~Walker, we reflect on the patient journey we’ve taken to craft exceptional single-vineyard designate wines. This journey has been sustained by the support of friends and family who have celebrated our determination and successes at each step along the way. We are deeply grateful for the friendships and sense of community that have grown richer with each passing season.
Wishing you a very Happy Thanksgiving!

2021 Mt. Veeder Estate Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Magnum
“The peaks and swales in a mountain vineyard that can make for uneven ripening remain unplanted here, allowing for truly consistent exposure. The result is a Cabernet Sauvignon unlike any other we’ve tasted from Mt. Veeder—nothing else is quite this complete.”
–Thomas Rivers Brown, Winemaker
The 2021 Pulido~Walker Mt. Veeder Estate Cabernet Sauvignon favors the 2018 vintage slightly more than the 2019. Driven more by structure than fruit. As we’ve come to expect, this wine is more black-fruited, with blue and purple elements but no red fruit qualities to speak of… a seamless, nuanced and savory Pulido~Walker Mt. Veeder Estate offering that may be our finest yet.
2022 Mt. Veeder Estate Vineyard Chardonnay Magnum
Dancing Maidens is a tribute to the collaborative and diligent years that brought us to this place, to the flowering of our estate vineyard where we danced, sowing the seeds of forever friendships. Our dear friend, artist Victoria Hanlon, created Dancing Maidens, the fifth in a series of art featured exclusively on our Estate Chardonnay magnums.
“We’re loving the steely concentration of the 2022 Pulido~Walker Mt. Veeder Estate Chardonnay; the wine definitely veers more citrus than tropical. Broad shouldered and structured, it feels eminently age-worthy. It could very well prove to be the wine of the vintage.”
–Thomas Rivers Brown, Winemaker
What struck us as we tasted through the 2022 Mt Veeder Estate Chardonnay lots was how excellent each one was individually.
The Montrachet has a pressed-flower quality that might tend toward flatness except for the great acidity and mid-palate stuffing that round it out. This clone brings pastry notes of fresh-baked brioche. The Robert Young supplies pretty, high-toned Chardonnay elements: sea spray, honeysuckle, beeswax, and lanolin. The Wente exhibits a quality that imparts palate weight and, thanks again to the acidity, maintains a consistent freshness.
The resulting wine has all the makings of a standout Chardonnay, with high acidity and moderate alcohol. The 2022 Pulido~Walker Mt. Veeder Estate Chardonnay is probably the best of the young vintages of this wine we have made.
Homemade Recipes to Compliment Your Holiday Festivities
Please enjoy some of our favorite family recipes. The first recipe is from Austin Gallion, Pulido~Walker Vice President of Sales. Complimenting his in-depth knowledge of wine, Austin is a classically trained chef and was an executive sous chef for several Michelin Star restaurants. His “Butternut Squash Soup” recipe can be found by clicking the link below.
The second recipe “Mama’s Homemade Banana Pudding” is passed down from Donna’s mom and is a staple at the table of her family’s reunions.
May these culinary delights add an extra layer of warmth and joy to your holiday festivities.
