Tasting Notes
Creating an appealing balance in a piece of artwork takes immense skill and time. One of the ways artists approach this idea is by working with “Tone”. Artists will use the term “tone it down” to make a color less vibrant and “tone it up” to make another more vibrant, ultimately leading to a beautiful and interesting piece of work. In this finely crafted, co-fermented blend, the grape varietals do exactly that. The rich, full bodied Chardonnay integrates wonderfully with the meyer lemon and floral notes of the Sauvignon Blanc. The wine has lightly toasted white oak and hints of caramel on the nose with floral notes of peach blossoms and honeysuckle. It is light and bright on this long smooth finish with light vanilla and lemon zest.
Winemaker Notes
The Tone is a white wine blend made with 65% Chardonnay and 35% Sauvignon Blanc. The Chardonnay is sourced from La Presa Vineyard and the Sauvignon Blanc is grown at Coquelicot Vineyard in the Los Olivos District. The fruit was picked on the same day, pressed and co-fermented together. It was then aged 6 months in neutral French oak barrels. This wine is best enjoyed chilled and pairs well with seafood pasta in a white wine sauce.
