Chardonnay, Bien Nacido Vineyard

Chardonnay, Bien Nacido Vineyard Wine Details
Price: $25.00 per bottle

Description: Regarded as one of Santa Barbara County’s most acclaimed vineyard sites, the Bien Nacido Vineyard is located in the cool, coastal Santa Maria Valley. Lincourt sources fruit from the vineyard’s ultra exclusive U-Block where site-specific conditions yield grapes unmatched in character. Hand-picked in late September the Chardonnay was whole-cluster pressed, barrel fermented and aged in small French oak casks for 11 months. Golden in color, the wine offers distinct tropical notes of pineapple, mango and passion fruit, which mingle with caramel, vanilla and citrus in the bouquet. Replete in acidity, the body is creamy yet crisp with a long, lingering finish.
