Wine Description
Rich and fruity, our Jacuzzi Chardonnay is quite unlike the popular crisp and leaner versions from Italy. Luscious apple and pear flavors with a toasty, vanilla-oak finish makes this wine an exquisite accompaniment to chicken with a tarragon cream sauce, Dungeness crab, or a nice piece of Gruyare.
Our Los Carneros vineyard experiences cooling wind from the Pacific
Ocean and fog cover during many mornings. With this, the grapes hang
longer, ripen fully and develop big apple and pear characteristics. Grapes
from our Sonoma Coast vineyard contributed a small portion for the
blend. This vineyard also experiences the cooling effects of the Pacific
fog, sometimes until noon, for most of the growing season, which is an ideal growing environment for Chardonnay.
