Winemaker Notes
Medium straw gold in color, our Rancho
Santa Rosa Chardonnay has a very concentrated
nose. Aromas of Granny Smith apples, ripe golden
pear, lemon and vanilla caramels predominate, with a
slight flinty undertone. Flavors of green apples and
pears, Meyer lemons, necarines and sweet cream are
balanced with crisp acidity and a silky mouthfeel.
The finish lingers with notes of vanilla, praline
cookies and baked apple. The rich texture and vivid
acidity of the 2007 Chardonnay make it easy to pair
with many cuisines. Try sautéed or grilled halibut,
steamed clams, gnocchi with butter and sage, and
roast chicken with lemon and herbs.

Rich and full-bodied, without being heavy, this offers ripe fig, honeydew melon, green pear and light spicy oak, all well-proportioned. Drink now through 2011.
Exhibiting the casual graciousness of Santa Barbara County, Lincourt Vineyards was named after Bill and Carol Foley’s two daughters – Lindsay and Courtney and marked the beginning of the Foley Family of wines. Founded in 1996, Lincourt produces boutique, ultra-premium estate wines from the acclaimed Sta. Rita Hills AVA. Handcrafted, small-lot bottling showcases the character of each vineyard site and bear the names of the women who influenced and shaped Bill’s life including his wife, mother, grandmother and aunt. The quaint 1926 Sears Craftsman Kit home serves as Lincourt’s charming tasting room and hospitality space.
