The Vineyard and Cellar
Emulating the bold, organic beauty of the world famous Yosemite National Park, our wines are designed to please a wide array of wine drinkers. Skillfully blended from a core of Sierra Foothill’s vineyards, Yosemite View can trace its viticulture roots back more than 150 years. The Sierra Foothills AVA is one of the oldest grape growing areas in California. The Yosemite View flavor profile is rich and rustic in a fruit forward style, balanced by a light, well integrated winemaking touch. Seamless and classic in style, the label colorfully depicts the stunning grandeur of our namesake landmark. The Yosemite View wines are flavor destinations to be visited repeatedly.
The fruit for our 2008 Yosemite View Chardonnay was sourced from cool coastal influenced vineyard in the Monterey AVA.
The Wine
On the nose the wine shows elements of honey, melon, pear and white fig. These elements carry over to the palate with additional layers of Fuji apple, roasted chestnut and mineral. A combination of American and French oak round out the finish.
