Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Miss Sandy Jones has evolved slightly over the years along with our fruit sourcing. Chardonnay has always been at the base of this blend, and most years it’s a combination of Chard from two different vineyards. We had a hard time finding enough in 2022, so Carlson Creek Vineyard is our solo Chardonnay component this year, contributing its spicy melon to the nose and richness to the palate. Malvasia Bianca from Dos Amigos Vineyard kicks up the tropical and floral aromatics, while Sauvignon Blanc from the Sierra Bonita Vineyard lends citrus notes and a bracing acidity to balance the softer side of Chardonnay. Roussanne and Grenache Blanc add notes of honeydew, tangerine and another layer of gracefulness to the palate. This is a complex and balanced wine suited for any occasion!
