| PH: | 3.45 |
| Alcohol %: | 13.9 |
| Tasting Notes: | 94% Chardonnay, 5% Roussanne, 1% Viognier Our 2008 Chardonnay is a brilliant wine with aromas of apple, pear, and pineapple with a hint of vanilla toast. Full of green apple, peach, and lemon in the mouth, it is rich, crisp, and seamless from beginning to end. |
| Ratings: | Wine Spectator - June 2010 Rated 87 Points "Rich, intense, and full-bodied, with spice, baked apple, melon, and creamy pear notes that are fresh, clean, and vibrant." |
| Awards: | San Francisco Chronicle - Silver Medal |
| Winemaker Notes: | Grapes for this 2008 vintage came from small vineyards in Paso Robles, Santa Maria Valley, and San Benito County. The Paso Robles and San Benito regions offer warmer climate characteristics of tropical fruit and fuller mouth feel while the ocean influence in the Santa Maria Valley provides the uniqueness of citrus, pear, and apple coupled with good acidity. |
| Food Pairing: | Enjoy this Chardonnay with aged cheeses or roasted lemon chicken. |
