The Sta. Rita Hills consistently produces world-class Chardonnay, as the cool climate and marine soils are perfectly suited to the varietal. The Ken Brown 2022 Chardonnay was sourced from the Donnachadh vineyard, which sits on a sheltered patch of sandy loam above the Santa Ynez river, and the vineyards is organically farmed.
This wine is a classic example of Chardonnay from this amazing appellation. Aromas of green apples and white flowers prepare us for flavors of lemon, pineapple and hints of vanilla. The gentle acidity keeps the wine light and refreshing. This wine would make a lovely pairing for summer fare like grilled shrimp or a fennel and apple salad.
