Description
Groth Estate Chardonnay exemplifies our dedication to creating expressive white wines that capture the distinct character of our cherished family vineyard estates. From a site that is home to two generations of our family, this elegant and beautifully balanced Chardonnay is the culmination of extensive investment in the health of our vineyards and a meticulous honing of our skills in the cellar.
TASTING NOTES: This wine dances with enticing notes of orange zest, toasted hazelnut, and wet stone, accented by hints of Anju pear, green tea, Fuyu persimmon, cardamom, and honeydew. On the palate, it unfolds with vibrant kiwi and lemon curd, layered with pineapple guava and pear, all underscored by a refreshing salinity and rounded out with notes of freshly baked bread for a delightful, harmonious finish. — Director of Winegrowing Ted Henry
PAIRING SUGGESTION: The wine’s citrus and salinity pair beautifully with the sweetness and brininess in a scallop crudo. As an alternative, try it with crab cakes featuring a touch of spice or duck breast with Anjou pear sauce. A creamy butternut squash risotto would also wonderfully complement the wine’s vibrant profile.
