Leyda Wines

Coastal Vineyards Falaris Hill Chardonnay

Located just 4-12 km from the Pacific Ocean, the coastal valley of Leyda is home to some exceptional vineyard sites. The low temperatures during spring and summer, along with the constant fog and strong coastal breezes, slow down the grape-ripening process and make Leyda an ideal place for growing cool climate grape varieties. Pale yellow in appearance with greenish hues, with intense and complex aromas with floral notes, ripe citrus fruit, orange zest and subtle notes of roasted nuts from well-judged barrel ferment. A Chardonnay of complexity, with an intense, creamy mouthfeel, balanced by a long, fresh, elegant finish.
