Monterey's cooling fog and Pacific coastal breezes, drawn across the Gabilan Mountains into the Salinas Valley, create an ideal climate for growing Chardonnay, yielding wines with tantalizing tropical notes and crisp acidity. Moderate temperatures lengthen the growing season, allowing fruit to evolve with layers of distinct Central Coast flavors. This wine comes from our 352-acre Shirtail Creek estate vineyard in Monterey.
Monterey, Central Coast, CA- Aromas of pear, citrus, and tropical fruit. On the palate this medium-bodied Chardonnay offers a refreshing, fruit forward style that is woven together with subtle oak and a balancing acidity.
