Shooting Star Chardonnay Mendocino 2010

The grapes for our Shooting Star Mendocino Chardonnay are grown in the Redwood Valley north of Ukiah in a family-owned organic vineyard. The Lolonis family has been growing organic grapes since the 1950’s. The vineyard typically produces lush, fruit forward wine. Typically this Chardonnay shows citrus and mineral characteristics with a hint of stone fruit flavors and bright acidity. The perfect pairing for this wine would be a poached rock fish drizzled with mornay sauce and lightly buttered seasonal vegetables.
