2007 PURITÉ CHARDONNAY Santa Rita Hills
VINEYARD SOURCES: 100% FROM ASHLEY’S VINEYARD SANTA RITA HILLS
BARREL AGING: 100% STAINLESS STEEL FERMENTED AND AGED FOR 8 MONTHS
For our un-oaked Chardonnay, we decided to tap into one of our best vineyard sources – Ashley’s in Santa Rita Hills – for this program. The result is a wonderful example of Chardonnay fruit flavors – fresh apple and pear - along with some of the minerality and brisk acidity that we’ve always found in Chardonnay from this vineyard.
Being fermented and aged 100% in stainless steel really allows these characteristics to shine through in an uninhibited manner that is worth a try. We have one warning: Like us, you may not want to drink oaked Chardonnay any more!
Some suggested pairings are sushi, soft cheeses like Brie, chicken piccata and any light fish dish. 460 Cases made
Winery Direct Price $24 / bottle
Wine Club $21.60
