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 fruitier, 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 a bracing acidity to balance the softer side of Chardonnay. Ugni Blanc adds additional layers of delicate melon, bright citrus, spice and a hint of macadamia nut. This is a complex and balanced wine suited for any occasion.
