Accord Santa Maria Chardonnay 2012
About the wine
.
- Christina has made Chardonnay all around the world and even in Burgundy at the feet of the masters! She understands what this grape is really all about.
- Grown in Santa Maria Valley which is known for its cooool nights, dry climate and exceptionally long growing season so it's perfect for making this kind of wine with intensity and elegance.
- More ripe fruit than last vintage, a tad less oak. A bright, flowery bouquet.
- A gloriously full-bodied, beautifully polished Chardonnay made by somebody who really loves the grape.

Love this wine with crab but any fuller white (fish, pasta, pork) dish along with just plain sipping will do.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Christina Pallmann
- With a Masters in wine from UC Davis, Christina's worked in prestigious wineries all over California, Burgundy and Bordeaux. We knew we absolutely had to work with her!
- She approached us with a desire to craft high end Burgundy-styled wines without the pomp or pretense. We were very impressed with the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay parcels that she was discovering all over California.
- With Angel funding she'll be able to find the best California has to offer at an unbeatable price.
