Stephen Ross Edna Valley Chardonnay

Description: Classic Burgundian winemaking methods were used in making this wine; barrel fermentation, malo-lactic fermentation, lees stirring, and sur lie aging for nine months in French oak barrels. The wine is brilliant in appearance, pale straw to yellow in color. The aromas are fresh and vibrant showing pear, nutmeg, mango and lemon zest. This is a rich, flavorful Chardonnay with just the right amount of acidity to pair with an array of dishes. Region Description. Edna Valley is directly south of the coastal town of San Louis Obispo. The region was gained recognition in the 1970's for its chardonnay. Gewürztraminer and pinot noir have been planted as well but the results have not been as rewarding as the chardonnay. Low hills on three sides give the valley an open cup shape that collects moisture laden air from the Pacific Ocean. The cool, steady temperatures and fog cover result in a very long growing season producing very unique wine.
