The Wolf - 2021 Chardonnay - Napa Valley

The wolf is one of Montana’s most important predators and has roamed the landscape and influenced the ecosystem for thousands of years. Wolves live in packs and communicate through body language, scent marking, barking, growling, and howling. When a wolf wants to challenge another wolf, it will growl or lay its ears back on its head. Barking is used as a warning, and howling is for long-distance communication to pull a pack back together and to keep strangers away. Wolves are undoubtedly a complex and important symbol in Yellowstone, representing both the enemies that encircle the Yellowstone Ranch and the ones that protect it.
