Cuvee Audrey

2007 Monterey County Chardonnay

The Talbott Cuvee Audrey is a beautifully crafted Chardonnay from the renowned Monterey County, showcasing the region's ability to produce exceptional wines. This vintage exudes a radiant golden hue, hinting at the elegant complexity within. On the palate, it presents a medium-bodied profile, balanced by bright acidity that brings a refreshing vibrancy to the experience. The fruit intensity is pronounced, with luscious notes of ripe tropical fruits, complemented by subtle undertones of vanilla and toasted oak from its time in barrels. This Chardonnay is dry, making it a versatile choice for pairing with a variety of dishes, from grilled seafood to creamy pasta. The overall structure is harmoniously enhanced by soft, integrated tannins, adding finesse and depth to this remarkable wine.

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.
