Made with a uniquely American perspective, 1000 Stories Chardonnay takes a California classic and gives it a bold twist.
Crafted primarily with Chardonnay grapes from Monterey's cool-climate Arroyo Seco region, this wine undergoes malolactic fermentation for an opulent, round mouthfeel before being aged for six months in 100% American oak.
Rich notes of peach, pear, yellow apple and vanilla meet layers of marshmallow, coconut, marzipan and clove, while seasoned American oak brings hints of spice and caramel.
The result is a rich, creamy Chardonnay with a long-lasting finish—and a decidedly different take on a familiar favorite.
