Characteristics:
Medium-bodied Chardonnay, grapes sourced from both Monterey vineyards close to Santa Lucia Highlands and Santa Barbara. Partially aged on 3-year old French oak. Aromas of preserved lemon, wet stone and a hint of lime blossom. Rich body and texture with layers of lime, guava, and pineapple, followed by light, creamy texture of whipped lemon curd. The lingering finish is clean and crisp.
Food Pairing:
Combine with fine and pure dishes: soft grilled fish or poultry. Salad with seafood, ‘tomate crevettes’ - tomato stuffed with fresh shrimps & homemade mayo. Delicious with roasted lobster with garlic and fine herbs.
