Once known as Chamisal “Stainless” Chardonnay, this crisp, refreshing wine embodies the same coastal style with the enhancement of modest oak use, creating a textured and balanced wine.
Bright citrus, crisp apple, and hints of white flower aromatics lead into a fresh, vibrant palate. Aged in stainless steel and neutral oak vessels, this wine highlights purity of fruit with subtle texture from lees contact. Minimal malolactic fermentation and early bottling preserve its bright, lively character. Drink now.
Pair with oysters, grilled shrimp, or fresh goat cheese.
Sourced from coastally influenced vineyards in San Luis Obispo County, these vineyards benefit from a cool climate that promotes slow, even ripening, enhancing flavor complexity while preserving acidity and freshness. The diverse soils, from the sandy and granitic terrain of the Eastern Salinas Valley to the clay-rich soils of Edna Valley, contribute to the unique character of the fruit.
