2006 Chardonnay
Sleepy Hollow Vineyard
Sleepy Hollow Vineyard is located at the top the Santa Lucia Highlands appellation of Monterey County and a stone’s throw across the street from our winery. Our version of Sleepy Hollow Chardonnay is elegant offering deep concentrated layers of apricot, ripe pear, and pineapple, with soft oak flavors and a hint of clove. The creamy, lingering butterscotch finish, coupled with firm natural acidity, will invite you back for continued enjoyment. Pair this wine with grilled shrimp, scallops, or as a stand-alone cocktail.
Accolades
- 92 Points - Wine Enthusiast September 2008 Magazine
"Pessagno has a perfect track record with this cool-climate vineyard, consistently producing Chards of this caliber. The wine is tight in acids and flinty minerals, even showing new oaky tannins. But the exotic nuances of roasted peaches and grilled pineapples suggest cellarability. Best after 2008."
