A barrel-fermented Chardonnay from California's Santa Lucia Highlands, produced by the Wagner Family of Wine. The Mer Soleil Vineyard was planted in 1988 in an area defined by morning fog, bright afternoon sunshine and persistent gusting winds. The Chardonnay is fermented and aged in French oak barrels for about 11 months, with lees stirred by hand. Only a small portion undergoes malolactic fermentation. The nose opens with ripe mango and pineapple, then apricot jam and coconut, with vanilla and toasted oak. The palate is lush and full-bodied, with pineapple custard, peach, butterscotch and Meyer lemon, finishing dry. The finish is long and buttery, with toasted oak and citrus.
