Ken Brown Wines This Chardonnay is silky and elegant with fresh aromas of gala apple, lemon blossom and honeysuckle, which will gradually evolve into aromas of honey, pear and hazelnut as the wine develops. A rich mouth feel and opulent mid-palate are beautifully balanced by bright natural acidity, a trademark of Santa Maria Valley Chardonnay. The wine culminates in a silky, seamless finish.

The Philosophy
As with any wine, winemaking starts in the vineyard and Chardonnay is no
exception. That is why we rely on the Nielson Vineyard, the oldest vineyard in
Santa Barbara County, as the source of our Chardonnay program. We complement
the unique expression of the grapes from this vineyard with classic Burgundian
winemaking techniques, such as barrel fermentation with native yeast, sur lie
aging and malolactic fermentation. The goal is to let the vineyard make the
statement, not the barrel. To that end, we use mostly seasoned barrels in the
production of our Chardonnay.
