Wines from Au Bon Climat

Producer: Au Bon Climat
Wine: Chardonnay Santa Barbara County 2006
Sub-region: South Central Coast
Region: California Country: USA
Grape: Chardonnay
Tasting notes: An uncompromising approach to quality here: low yielding, high quality vineyards are hand-pruned and thinned, sustainably farmed, and hand picked.

The grapes are barrel fermented with lots of lees stirring and bottled without filtration. The result is a great example of elegant, leesy chardonnay.

Producer: Au Bon Climat
Wine: Pinot Noir Santa Maria Valley 2007
Sub-region: South Central Coast
Region: California Country: USA
Grape: Pinot Noir
Tasting notes: The Santa Maria vineyards are cooled substantially by the coastal fogs prevalent in this region resulting in a Pinot Noir of admirable freshness and vitality. Very juicy and eminently drinkable.
