2020 Miss Sandy Jones

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. Sauvignon Blanc from the Sierra Bonita Vineyard, a cooler site than the other three vineyards, lends citrus notes and an intense acidity to balance the softer side of Chardonnay. Ugni Blanc – a newcomer to this blend and our cellar in general – adds additional layers of delicate melon, bright citrus and a hint of macadamia nut. This is a complex and balanced wine suited for any occasion.
