WINE DESCRIPTION

Leaping Horse Chardonnay is a delightful white wine produced from grapes grown in the Central Coast appellation, which is known for its cool climate and ideal growing conditions for Chardonnay. The vineyards feature well-draining soils and are situated in a region that benefits from the cooling influence of the Pacific Ocean. The winemaking process involves a combination of stainless steel and oak barrel fermentation, resulting in a wine that is crisp and refreshing with a subtle hint of oak. Leaping Horse Chardonnay is a medium-bodied wine with a bright acidity and flavors of green apple, pear, and citrus. It is a perfect wine to pair with seafood, poultry, or creamy pasta dishes.
