Chardonnay

Tasting Note: Offers up fresh citrus and lemon zest aromas, followed by a polished mouthful of stone fruit and lively acidity. A nicely balanced and refreshing style. Ideal for poultry, seafood, or simply enjoying al fresco.

The Cat Canyon vineyard provides the backbone for the Santa Barbara Wine Company Chardonnay. Cat Canyon is located in the Los Alamos subregion of Santa Barbara County, whose temperatures are cooler than Santa Ynez, to the south.

The vineyard’s cool climate, combined with our sustainable farming practices, produce consistently vibrant, outstanding Chardonnays driven by bright fruit characteristics. The 2008 Chardonnay was aged in a combination of new oak, neutral oak, and stainless steel.

Cat Canyon Vineyard

“Of note is the Santa Barbara Wine Company, a new label that gets the backbone of their grapes from the Cat Canyon Vineyard in the Los Alamos subregion of Santa Barbara County, and it wonderfully displays the vibrant fruit quality of Santa Barbara Chardonnay.”
