Tasting profile
Structure: medium-bodied, low tannin, medium acidity, dry
Unoaked Chardonnay from Santa Barbara County, made in a deliberately transparent style — no barrel, no malolactic softening, nothing between you and the fruit. White peach and lemon with green apple, a saline mineral edge and a faintly chalky texture, medium-bodied with bright acidity and a clean, direct finish. California Chardonnay stripped of everything it is usually accused of, and it wants drinking young and cold while the precision is at its sharpest.
