Chardonnay 2 Pack:1 Barrel Select and 1 Private Reserve - Chateau Julien

Chardonnay 2 Pack:1 Barrel Select and 1 Private Reserve - Chateau Julien

Did you know that Chardonnay is the
most planted grape in the world and the most popular wine in the United States?
Monterey County has more Chardonnay planted than any other California county,
with over 16,000 acres! The Thermal Rainbow™ affects our growing region as heat
from the sun forces the warm air to rise and cool air off the ocean moves
through the valley with increasing force as the day progresses. This creates a
slow gentle ripening and creates the perfect conditions for Chardonnay grapes.
If Merlot is King at Chateau Julien then Chardonnay is definitely our
Queen!
