Diamond Collection Appellation Series Santa Lucia Highlands Chardonnay

The Diamond Collection Appellation Series Chardonnay bestows a rich, creamy texture, lush fruit impressions, and an impeccable balance. On the nose, inviting aromas of toasted oak, orange blossom, and tropical fruit intertwine, creating a rich and expressive bouquet. The palate is equally compelling, with layered flavors of vanilla, toasted oak, and honey delivering a luxurious mouthfeel. A touch of minerality and bright acidity lend structure, balancing the wine’s creamy texture. The finish is long and elegant, leaving a linger impression of warm baking spice and citrus zest.

Sourced from the cool, wind-swept vineyards of the Santa Lucia Highlands, our 2023 Francis Coppola Diamond Collection Appellation Series Chardonnay embodies the region’s unique ability to produce wines of exceptional depth and balance. The combination of morning fog, afternoon coastal breezes, and well-draining hillside soils allows for a long, even growing season—resulting in fruit with remarkable intensity and natural acidity.
