Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Rich, elegant and a bit refined. Our medium-bodied chardonnay is a bright, fruit-forward wine with tropical fruit, lime and pear essence; complete with balanced acidity. A well-structured quaff with flavors of green apple, a touch of vanilla and toasted oak on the finish.

Pair Flat Top Hills Chardonnay with mild, buttery or creamy dishes, meaty fish like halibut and cod, shellfish and subtly flavored, simply seasoned poultry and pork dishes.

    This textural beauty allures with aromas of key lime. From there, it holds its richness in check, but its expressive nature is apparent. The mouthfeel is superb, with notes of succulent stone fruit and ripe pineapple

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.
