    Winemaker Notes

    Delicate aromas of sweet pineapple, Bartlett pear and a hint of vanilla segue into balanced flavors of apricot and bright citrus. Buttery undertones are accentuated by judicious acidity for a supple but crisp finish.

    Pairs well with Wild Halibut with a lemon butter sauce, dill Havarti cheese & cracker appetizer or a classic Pizza Margherita.

    California’s most praised white wine, Chardonnay is also the state’s most planted white grape variety. Diverse terrain and microclimates allow for an incredible range of wine styles.

    Chardonnay planted in the cooler, coastal zones takes on bright characteristics like lemon zest, key lime, green apple and wet flint. For this style, look to the chilly Sonoma Coast, Carneros, Santa Cruz Mountains, Santa Lucia Highlands and Edna Valley.

    The inland zones of California’s coast, such as the Russian River, Sonoma, Napa and Livermore Valleys maintain a more Goldilocks-esque climate where both styles go. Early picking retains acidity and creates a leaner style but leaving the grapes to hang creates an approachable Chardonnay, balancing richness and finesse.

    Chardonnay also plays a major part in the sparkling wine production of the Anderson Valley and Carneros.
