Monterey County Chardonnay from Estancia
Estancia is one of Monterey County's defining wine names — a Constellation house built on the county's long, cool growing season, where Pacific air funnels down the Salinas Valley and lets Chardonnay ripen slowly without losing its freshness. This bottling is the county wine in the producer's own telling: light-straw gold in the glass, full-bodied, with pineapple and guava carrying the palate. Browse the wine shelves, visit the Estancia vendor page, or compare an Australian contemporary on the same grape, Green Point Chardonnay 2005.
Tasting Notes
Per the producer: light-straw gold in colour, with pineapple and guava fruit and a full-bodied palate. Style: a ripe Monterey County Chardonnay — tropical fruit in front, the county's cool-climate freshness underneath. (No further note set is producer-verified for this bottling; see the applier flags.)
How to Enjoy
Serve it chilled, around 50–55°F. A full-bodied Monterey Chardonnay pairs naturally with roast chicken, grilled salmon, creamy pasta and buttered corn.
