2016 Butternut Chardonnay

We have sourced grapes from throughout California to create a luscious, round Chardonnay. After a rollercoaster 2015 vintage, we settled into an ideal 2016 vintage. Mellow, even weather led to normal to above average yields with tremendous quality. Wines from the 2016 vintage are crisp and vibrant. It could possibly be one of the top vintages in the last two decades.

From the winemaker – “Aromas of peach, hazelnut and spiced candied apple breeze around the brim. Round, creamy notes of fig, butterscotch and sweet oak dance on the palate.”

This Butternut Chardonnay is amazing with wild rice with toasted nuts and dried currants or crab cakes and risotto with spring vegetables.

2010 Cannonball Sonoma County Chardonnay

Cannonball-Sonoma-County-ChardonnayOur goal is to deliver balance in our Chardonnay. Cannonball 2010 Chardonnay is a superlative blend of 50% French Oak and 50% stainless steel fermentation with 85% malolactic fermentation. The wine offers a sophisticated nose of lemon custard, peaches, and a hint of pie crust. On the palate, stone fruit and tropical notes like pineapple come into the mix — even a hint of Granny Smith apple and vanilla bean on the finish. We hope when you taste the 2010 Cannonball Chardonnay it brings a smile to your face!

From the Wine Maker – “We’ve crafted a Chardonnay that we believe offers something a little different — balance. A wine with oak and creaminess, but isn’t a wood/butter bomb. We want bold fruit, not fruit candy. We found the perfect blend that made everyone smile. We hope you enjoy our 2010 Chardonnay — we think it’s Chardonnay You Can Believe In.”

This Chardonnay is an excellent accompaniment for fish, poultry and lightly sauced entrees. Semi-hard cheeses like Fontina, Jarlsberg, Swiss or Gouda.

2009 Ruca Malen Yauquen Chardonnay

This Chardonnay is forward in style, with lightly toasty, creamy aromas that accent baseline apple and tropical fruit scents. This wine exposes a citrus corner that balances its tropical fruit. A hint of fresh herbs and minerals articulate a well-balanced delicious wine.

From the Wine Maker – “Yellow with bright green hues. In the nose it shows, floral notes, pears and pineapple. In the mouth it is fresh and sweet, with a very well-balanced acidity. Persistent and aromatic after taste.”

Best with grilled or sautéed pork chops, pork tenderloin, grilled or sautéed veal, veal marsala, scaloppini or roasted veal. Cream style cheeses like cottage, cream cheese, or fromage blanc, mozzarella, semi-hard cheeses like mild Cheddar, Fontina, Jarlsberg, Swiss or Gouda, soft rind cheeses like Brie.
