Coquille Blanc

2010 Paso Robles White Blend

The Carol Shelton Coquille Blanc from the 2010 vintage is a delightful white blend hailing from the sun-soaked Paso Robles region. This wine greets the eye with a luminous, pale gold hue that promises elegance. On the palate, it showcases a medium body that is complemented by bright, mouthwatering acidity, evoking a sense of refreshment. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing vibrant notes of citrus and stone fruit, which dance beautifully across the taste buds. With a delightful balance of richness and liveliness, this blend is dry yet showcases a charming silkiness that is both inviting and versatile. Ideal for pairing with seafood or fresh salads, the Coquille Blanc embodies the essence of its Mediterranean climate, making it a wonderful choice for any occasion.

Central Coast

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
