Meaghan Hodge & Stephen Millier Esmeralda Vineyard Chardonnay 2019
About the wine
Fresh and fruity single-vineyard Chardonnay from the heart of the Sierra Foothills
- Bright and bursting with a bounty of light fruity flavor, this Chardonnay is delectably smooth with touches of tangy citrus and a refreshing crispness you can’t say ‘no’ to.
- Meaghan and Stephen set out to make a stunning and oh-so sippable Chardonnay from their beloved Sierra Foothills, so with your support, they went straight for the Esmeralda Vineyard, one of the best-kept secret spots for perfectly ripe Chardonnay in all of Calaveras County.
- This grandfather-grandaughter winemaking duo insist – a Chardonnay this bright and brimming with fruit calls for a classic pairing of Fettuccini, lightly dusted with Parmesan and drizzled with extra virgin olive oil.
Best before
Aging for three to four years should be optimum for this unique blend.
Serving advice
Try to open this wine 20-30 minutes before pouring the first glass.
Food match
This wine goes great with spinach, bacon and tomatoes over a big heaping bowl of pasta.
