In 1973 Chamisal Vineyards was the first to plant vineyards in the Edna Valley. Light straw color illustrates its unoaked composition in appearance as well as profile. The wine is tropical with aromas of fresh mango and custard. On the palate apple and tropical fruit flavors with citrus and spice notes. Medium finish, easy drinking ending smooth.

The first vineyard planted in the Edna Valley appellation in 1973, 5 miles inland against the Santa Lucia Mountains, formerly operating under the name of Domaine Alfred. Aromas of tropical fruits and citrus. On the palate apple and pineapple with a burst of citrus mineral tang, very crisp, savory. Fresh smooth finish ending with mineral notes.

Nice light citrus notes on the nose, citrus and apple flavors, medium bodied with good acidity, but not particularly memorable.

Finally, a second unoaked California Chard! A little of the butter, but with notes of tart apple and peach.

Very pleasant nose. Picked this because I didn’t want your typical CA Chardonnay. It is crisp, light, slightly acidic with fruit on the palate. Not bad. Reminds me of a Chablis.
