Mer Soleil
Reserve Monterey County - Santa Lucia Highlands Chardonnay
Taking its name from the sea and sun – the two forces of nature that shape its character. Pale lemon, aromas of Stone and tropical fruits, with floral and sweet spice notes. On the palate flavors of apple, peach & apricot with lemon zest and toasty vanilla notes. Smooth long finish, well balanced, nice acidity, ending with fruit, vanilla oak and mineral character. Sip’s well now. Pair this with some pan seared white fish.

Oct 24th, 2021Tribute to my momma, summer, and reconnecting *in person* with beloved companion. Rich and delicious yet not heavy on the tongue. Fresh, bright. Lovely. (And we don’t usually like Chardonnay).

Sep 10th, 2021Bit more lean, angular w/assertive acidic backbone - still sporting some lovely notes of sweet citrus, orchard fruit & papaya. Clean refreshing & bracing - wanted more body & viscosity.

Dec 24th, 2020Medium straw in color with a nose of lemon, star fruit, flint, and toast. Medium to full-bodied, well balanced with all elements playing together nicely. Nice, long finish.
