Chalone Estate Chardonnay

“Chalone isn’t a label; it’s a place on earth.” The wines speak to the limestone and decomposed granite soils that are specific to this wild, isolated mountain plateau in Monterey County. The low-nutrient soils make the vines struggle and give the wines unique minerality; the diurnal temperature swings and cool winds retain acidity; the intense sunshine builds flavors and tannin structure; and the age of our vines enhances the wines’ concentration, complexity, and ageability.Chalone Estate Chardonnay is bright with acidity that supports mouthwatering flavors of Meyer lemon, nectarine and white peach. The lingering minerality accented by floral aromas provides a vibrant and satisfying finish.
