2019 Chardonnay Estate

Overview

93 Points, Wine Enthusiast + Editor's Choice

The Sarah's Estate Chardonnay is our most historic wine. From our very first vintages in the late 1970's, this label has been responsible for our world-class reputation growing this noble grape.

'This is a delicious and complex wine, harkening back to the property’s Chardonnay heyday. Restrained aromas of white peach, warm toast and chamomile lead into a tense palate, where a rocky texture unleashes waves of honeysuckle and pineapple, with no lack of acidity.'

Tasting Notes

The ’19 Estate Chardonnay displays yellow apples, pears, and white peaches with a touch of meyer lemon. The time in neutral French oak barrels lends a touch of vanilla and a soft creamy texture to this bright, crisp wine. Pair with linguine and clams or salmon with a creamy dill sauce.
