Santa Cruz Mountains

An exceptional wine from winemaker Ashley Holland of Read Holland, which comes from nearly 50-year-old Chardonnay vines, head-trained in the Santa Cruz Mountains. ‘This heritage clone of Chardonnay, called Mt. Eden, was brought to California from France in the late 1890s by Paul Masson,’ says Holland. This wine is a pure classic. Great ocean-inspired aromatics of a salty sea breeze and briny sea shells frame a light, smoky lemon. Salted lemon peel flavours bring an immediacy to the minerality that streaks across layered notes of lemon curd, lemon beebrush and subdued honeyed ginger. It's a gorgeous wine.
