Old Vine

2009 Paso Robles Chardonnay

The Red Soles Winery Old Vine Chardonnay from the renowned Paso Robles region is a delightful white wine that showcases the unique characteristics of its terroir. With its vibrant golden hue, this vintage is full-bodied, offering a luscious mouthfeel that envelops the palate. The acidity is bright and refreshing, perfectly balancing the rich fruit flavors of ripe pear and nuanced citrus. While the fruit intensity is prominent, it is complemented by subtle layers of vanilla and toasted oak, adding depth to this elegant expression. This wine is beautifully dry, making it a versatile choice for food pairings or simply enjoying on its own. The craftsmanship and dedication to quality evident in this Old Vine Chardonnay truly elevate the tasting experience.

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.
