2020 San Antonio Winery Windstream Sarmento Vineyard Chardonnay, Santa Lucia Highlands, USA
$22.99 USD
Winemaker Notes
The maritime influence of the Pacific Ocean creates morning fog and afternoon winds: an ideal climate for the production of world-class Burgundian varietals. This “stream of winds” directly aects the Sarmento Vineyard, which is located in the prestigious Santa Lucia Highlands appellation of Monterey. The soil is well-drained loamy sand with many fist-sized cobblestones. Windstream Chardonnay is a luscious, structured wine with intense flavors of ripe pear and green apple. Barrel fermentation contributes nuances of oak spice and honey, while malolactic fermentation creates a round mouthfeel with a supple, creamy texture.
Windstream Chardonnay pairs very well with polenta, veal, or grilled seafood.
