Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Fresh white flower, vanilla wafer, and citrus aromatics reminiscent of lemon meringue pie are the first impressions. Fermented and aged in a combination of French and American oak barrels which impart a touch of coconut sweetness and warm tones of vanilla that compliment the citrus fruit notes and bright acidity. This wine is truly a flagship of Sta. Rita Hills.

    All lees and smoke when first poured, this develops nutty Parmesan-rind notes and a golden-apple sweetness. The combination is rich and generous. Best Buy

One of the most popular and versatile white wine grapes, Chardonnay offers a wide range of flavors and styles depending on where it is grown and how it is made. While it tends to flourish in most environments, Chardonnay from its Burgundian homeland produces some of the most remarkable and longest lived examples. California produces both oaky, buttery styles and leaner, European-inspired wines. Somm Secret—The Burgundian subregion of Chablis, while typically using older oak barrels, produces a bright style similar to the unoaked style. Anyone who doesn't like oaky Chardonnay would likely enjoy Chablis.

Sta. Rita Hills Wine

Santa Barbara, California

A superior source of California Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, Sta. Rita Hills is the coolest, westernmost sub-region of the larger Santa Ynez Valley appellation within Santa Barbara County. This relatively new AVA is unquestionably one to keep an eye on.

The climate of Sta. Rita Hills is a natural match for Chardonnay and Pinot noir, thanks to the crisp ocean breezes and well-drained, limestone-rich calcareous soil. Here, grapes ripen just enough, while retaining brisk acidity and harmonious balance.
