La MONTAGNE WINERY for CHARDONNAY
The grapes for this beautiful Chardonnay are grown in one of the oldest vineyards in the stunning Sta. Rita hills appellation. The vineyard climate is cool, allowing for long hang time before harvest; this results in great acidity in the final wine. This Chardonnay is nicely layered with fruit, sappy crispness, and a rich and silky mouth feel that makes you want to take another sip. It is a beautiful, food friendly wine, but also good enough to enjoy on its own. May each sip bring you joy!
