“Easily one of the finest examples of this popular grape grown in California.” - Robert Lawrence Balzer
<br><br>
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: #1E347C;">Winemaking Notes:</span><br>
Cobblestone Chardonnay is made entirely from the fruit of our cobblestone-laden family vineyard in the <a href="http://wine.appellationamerica.com/wine-region/Arroyo-Seco.html" target=_new>Arroyo Seco appellation</a> of central Monterey County
<br><br>
As with our previous two releases, the 2005 vintage reflects our philosophy of presenting true varietal characteristics without unnecessary interference. With stainless steel fermentation, French oak aging in a mix of large and small barrels, and very limited malolactic fermentation, the result is the best of both worlds. If you like the idea of crisp Burgundian complexity balanced with the brightness of New World fruit, look no further.

Tasting Notes:</span><br>
A blast of banana lends a tropical side to green apple, lime and chalky minerals, laced with the subtle spice and vanilla influence of French oak. A touch of grapefruit and white pepper emerge in the delightfully long and dry finish. The structure and balance make for an elegant and extremely versatile food-pairing wine
