About This Wine

Composure

Chardonnay

This classic Paso Robles Chardonnay is all elegance. This wine is a showcase of what the warm California climate can bring to a Chardonnay. The ripe stone fruit flavors and viscous texture are supported by notes of vanilla and cinnamon that come from the French Oak barrels and add a beautiful touch of complexity to this bottle. Secondary notes of citrus play across the palate and give it a touch of intrigue when paired with food. We think that it is a classic style best served with classic pairings: fresh pasta, seared scallops, and grilled fish. Judges love it too! It took home Silver at the 2018 Sommelier Challenge and the 2018 Harvest Challenge.

Wine Region

Paso Robles

California's fastest-growing wine region is quickly gaining an international reputation for its innovative and boundary-breaking wines. Located halfway between LA and San Francisco, the Paso Robles AVA in San Luis Obispo County has two main zones. The eastern side has a hot and sunny climate with deep, rich soils producing plush, fruity wines with sweet ripe flavors. To the west, the cooling influence of the Pacific brings a zingy backbone to rich Zinfandel and Rhône favorites like Syrah and Viognier. Italian varietals like Sangiovese and Nebbiolo are also favorites of Paso Robles grape growers and wine drinkers.
