Profile & Story

Fortitude Cellars is a small family winery founded by Martin Hein on California's Central Coast, where he planted Dijon-clone Chardonnay and Pinot Noir on a seven-acre, own-rooted estate vineyard sited unusually close to the ocean. The domaine favors tight vine spacing and low yields, prioritizing quality over volume.

Tasting Notes

A cool, ocean-influenced Central Coast Chardonnay from Dijon clones, built for balance rather than weight. Restaurant's Notes: Golden apple, pineapple, crème brûlée, baking spice; rich mid-palate with a fresh, citrusy finish.

Pairing Recommendation

Good with roast chicken, buttered corn, or creamy poblano dishes.
