Carneros Chardonnay

Chardonnay

Sonoma County

Our Carneros Chardonnay grows in a cool area with moderate conditions and maritime winds blowing north from San Pablo Bay. Daily fog limits the sunshine and is ideal for producing wines with balanced acidity and structure. This combined with heightened aromatics gives way to wines that are lush and tropical yet full of minerality and freshness.

Points This lush, ripe and creamy wine is part of a renaissance for one of Sonoma's 20th-century pioneers. Beautiful pear and juicy apple notes blend with hints of lemon zest, butter and vanilla.

Points Expressive and refined on the nose, with notes of honeyed citrus, tangerine, golden apples, and waxy Marcona almonds. Full-bodied and very appealing on the palate.

Tasting Notes

This elegant Chardonnay has aromas of spiced pear and exotic mandarin with hints of vanilla and fresh cream. Bold flavors of pear and white nectarine are balanced with rich layered textures, a bright acidity and complemented by a luxurious texture from 100% oak aging. The finish is creamy, long and elegant. This wine pairs perfectly with Asian pear salad, halibut and lemon beurre blanc and toast almond cake.
