WineDiva's Review

Showy, fleshy, golden.
Under the umbrella of the Wagner Family of Wines, Sea Sun is a golden-hued Chardonnay for Californian Chardonnay lovers; unapologetic and showy. Notes of pineapple and honey, melon and tangerine flirt with toasted nuts, beeswax and brown spices. It is intense and juicy with loads of tropical fruit, roasted hazelnuts and creamy vanilla flavours. Plush and fleshy but fresh and lifted, it's a Chardy for buttery sauces, roast chicken, almond crusted corn chowder, corn bread, corn-on-the-cob...
Made from grapes harvested in Monterey, Santa Barbara County and Solano County,

Recommended Pairings
Seafood/Fish, White Meat Chicken/Pork, Cheese - Soft/Creamy, Creamy Dishes
