Profile & Story

Presqu'ile Winery is a family-owned estate in the Santa Maria Valley, farming nearly 30 hectares of organic and sustainably farmed vineyards across Santa Barbara County; winemaker Dieter Cronje crafts each wine as a reflection of its specific vineyard site, vintage, and climate. This Santa Barbara County Chardonnay is the estate's foundational white bottling, blending fruit from several county vineyard sites, fermented with native yeast and aged in a mix of neutral French oak and stainless steel.

Tasting Notes

Presqu'ile describes this bottling as the wine that sets the foundation for how they vinify whites at the estate — a bright, refreshing style. Santa Barbara County Chardonnays in this house style typically show citrus and orchard fruit with a saline, mineral edge, shaped by light, mostly neutral oak rather than heavy toast.
