Monterey's combination of moderate climate and marine influences from the Pacific Ocean keep the grapes on an even keel, able to develop fully ripe flavors that tend to show some lemon and lime zest, a touch of ripe apple and tropical aromas and flavors. We call it crisp and clean, with well balanced acids.
Wine Advocate
- wa87
Offering up notes of baked apples and ripe peaches with toasty/yeasty nuances, the 2016 Chardonnay has a medium body and good core of uncomplicated oak-kissed stone fruit, finishing on a spicy note.

Ripe and filled with pear flavors that are creamy, lush and well-spiced. A nice one-note wine. Drink now. 203,095 cases made.

Fresh Key lime aromas meet with touches of guava, plumeria and lemongrass on the steely nose of this bottling. There's a great sizzle of acidity to the sip, leaning a bit more toward Sauvignon Blanc than Chardonnay, with flavors of guava gum, green papaya, lime and grass.
