2024 Acolytes Chardonnay, Santa Barbara County
Acolytes serves two purposes. The first is to be a gateway wine, introducing wine lovers to Santa Barbara County through the lens of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and eventually, to OLG and the Our Lady of Guadalupe Vineyard. The second is to be a complementary and affordable alternative to our OLG estate wines. Sourced from premier vineyards throughout Santa Barbara County, the Acolytes wines are delicious, easy to drink and reminiscent of place. In their second vintage, we’ve been able to grow the number of vineyards we’ve sourced from, allowing the wines to be even more representative of the region as a whole.
Winemaker’s Notes
The 2024 Acolytes Chardonnay pours into a glass with an elegant pale liquid gold. Immediate aromatics of bright Meyer lemon, white florals, lemon pith and a touch of brioche dominate from the start. Upon entry, the wine balances a soft, rounded texture with crisp acidity alongside notes of yellow apple, white peach and key lime. Energetic through the finish, the wine closes with a touch of white pear and lemon zest.
Composition
Chardonnay
Élevage
Aged for 9 months in neutral French Oak (43%) and stainless steel tank (57%), then tank for an additional 3 months.
