WINE DESCRIPTION
Diatom Chardonnay is a premium wine produced by the renowned winemaker Greg Brewer. The grapes are sourced from the Sta. Rita Hills in California, known for its cool climate and unique diatomaceous earth soil. The vineyard features a mix of old and new vines, which contribute to the wine's complexity and depth. The winemaking process involves minimal intervention, with the use of native yeasts and neutral oak barrels to showcase the purity of the fruit. The resulting wine is elegant and refined, with a crisp acidity and flavors of citrus, green apple, and minerality. Diatom Chardonnay is a must-try for those seeking a high-quality, terroir-driven wine.
