Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Miss Sandy Jones has evolved slightly over the years along with our fruit sourcing. Chardonnay has always been the base of this blend, and most years it’s a combination of Chard from two different vineyards. The Carlson Creek Vineyard contributes fresher, more intense aromatics and a slight softness; while the Buhl Memorial Vineyard lends a bright acidity and an almost Burgundian restraint. The Grenache Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc in the blend this year come from the Sierra Bonita Vineyard north of Willcox in Graham County. The cooler site give the grapes great acidity and some bright citrus characters that complement and balance the softer side of Chardonnay. This is a complex and balanced wine suited for any occasion.
