Tasting Notes
From Santa Barbara’s Los Alamos Vineyard, where warm days meet cool Pacific nights, this off-dry Chenin Blanc shows layered notes of apricot, honey, and fresh herbs. Bright acidity and a mineral edge carry through to a clean, balanced finish.
Vineyards
This wine blends Chardonnay grapes, hand-harvested from two of our estate vineyards. The cooler Los Alamos and Goodchild Vineyards provide this wine with distinct pear, peach and stone fruit complexity and a hint of lemony-citrus. It is a pure expression of the fruit grown on vines from the Los Alamos and Goodchild Vineyards in Northern Santa Barbara County.
Winemaking
The Chardonnay grapes were cold fermented and underwent a partial secondary fermentation in 24% neutral oak.
