Ernest Vineyards Sonoma Coast Chardonnay
Story

THE VINEYARD: Inspired by an incredible 3-acre property we’ve just added to the Ernest family, we introduce our first ever appellation Chardonnay. The Joyce Vineyard is the coldest site we’ve encountered in the West Sonoma Coast and one day will be an incredible source for sparkling wine. But there’s plenty to anchor our Sonoma Coast Chardonnay along with some blending from our two other cool-climate, maritime-influenced Chardonnay sites. This wine is 100% sourced and crafted from Ernest’s core program without any additional external or bulk wine added.

LABEL STORY: Who is Ernest? A risk-taker, a role model, an inspiring grandfather who helps you confidently reach further. That inspiration informs everything we do at Ernest Vineyards.
