The cool climate vineyards in the Santa Lucia Highlands produce grapes with high acidity and brightness that delight the palate. The 2015 No. 49 has creamy citrus, Asian pear and delicate floral notes of honeysuckle present on the nose. Undergoing complete malolactic fermentation, this Chardonnay entices the palate with the smooth and rich aspect of crème brulee. Notes of blanched almonds, preserved Meyer lemon and lightly toasted coconut fully envelop the mouth, and hints of minerality lead to a clean finish.

At the same time, California was emerging anew, and with the writing of the first state constitution, the state of California was born!
