Inconceivable Wine Queen of Tides Chardonnay, a masterpiece crafted from 100% Chardonnay, unfolds its tale with meticulous attention. Hand-picked clusters undergo whole-cluster pressing, funneling the essence into French oak barrels, of which 30% are new, for seven months. The result is a sensory journey—rich aromas weave honeyed pears with a dusting of fresh nutmeg and clove. A symphony of marzipan, apricot, vanilla, and roasted marshmallow scents beckons. The palate embraces a textured weight, balancing viscosity perfectly. A crescendo of spiced flavors reveals notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, butterscotch, apricot, and honeyed nuances, all with a delicate minerality, leaving a lingering, warm, and spiced finish.

The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States.
The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.
