Mark West Chardonnay

TASTING NOTES: Citrus and pear aromas followed by lush peach melon green apple and mineral flavors with a toasty oak finish. PAIRS PERFECTLY WITH: Grilled cheese with tomato soup Cobb salad grilled salmon or really go for it with apple pie a la mode. WINEMAKING NOTES: We may be Pinot fanatics but who doesn't love a good Chardonnay? In fact Chardonnay is a distant relative to Pinot Noir so often times Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are grown together. We selected grapes primarily from the finest vineyards in cool-climate Monterey County. After harvest the grapes were gently crushed and underwent two to three weeks of cool fermentation-that's what makes it fresh! The wine was aged in French oak. After blending we bottled it up and sent it off for you to enjoy! - Mark West
