Botella by Sea Smoke Chardonnay

Description

Botella Chardonnay by Sea Smoke is a beautifully balanced expression of California's Sta. Rita Hills, named for the mineral-rich Botella soil that defines the estate and neighboring vineyards. Crafted with the same meticulous care that has made Sea Smoke renowned, this Chardonnay is fermented primarily in stainless steel with minimal new oak, allowing the purity of the fruit and the character of the vineyard to shine. Elegant and quietly complex, it opens with fresh stone fruit aromas that lead to a vibrant palate of Meyer lemon, caramelized figs, flaky pie crust, and warm cardamom spice. Bright acidity, subtle texture, and a long, refined finish make this an exceptional Chardonnay to enjoy on its own or alongside seafood, roasted poultry, and creamy pasta dishes.
