Winemaker Notes

Evocative aromas of wet stone, earth, and lemon curd give way to penetrating concentration and an expansive finish. The 2000 Estate Chardonnay blends grapes from the Talley Family's two vineyards in the Arroyo Grande Valley: 88% Rincon Vineyard and 12% Rosemary's Vineyard. The nineteen-year-old vines growing on the steep clay/limestone hillsides of the Rincon Vineyard contribute Chardonnay of richness and mineral complexity. The Rosemary's Vineyard portion was sourced from three distinct vineyard blocks—the fifteen-year-old section in front of Don and Rosemary Talley's home, as well as two new plantings in the canyons that flank the original planting.

"A wine of finesse and elegance, with intense, vibrant fruit that's ripe and rich, with layers of smoky toasty oak, honeysuckle, fig and melon, turning subtle and polished. Drink now through 2005."
-Wine Spectator's Top 100 Wines of 2002

Talley Vineyards Talley Legacy Video Winery Video

Talley Vineyards is a family owned and operated winery that specializes in estate grown Chardonnay and Pinot Noir ideally suited for the climate and soils of the Arroyo Grande and Edna Valleys. The Talley’s farming history in the area dates to 1948 when Oliver Talley began growing vegetables in the Arroyo Grande Valley. Guided by this legacy and a commitment to long term sustainability, Talley Vineyards focuses on attention to detail in all aspects of farming and winemaking operations. The goal is to produce distinctive wines of consistently high quality that best express the unique character of each of the Talley family’s six vineyard sites in the two valleys.

Talley Vineyards is located in the Arroyo Grande Valley, seven miles east of the Pacific Ocean in San Luis Obispo County on California's South Central Coast. We are approximately halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles and less than 10 minutes from Highway 101 in Arroyo Grande.
