2018 Dragonette, Rita’s Crown Vineyard Chardonnay, Sta. Rita Hills 1x75cl

JD94VM94
Blend: 100% Chardonnay Vintage Production: 220 cases One of the producers at the forefront of Sta. Rita's Hills' success is Dragonette Cellars. Winemaker Brandon Sparks-Gills, and brothers Steve and... John Dragonette, select the region's elite vineyards to make Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays of utter refinement and distinction. Rita’s Crown vineyard is located at one of the highest points in the Sta. Rita Hills, adjacent to such famous sites as Mt Carmel and Sea Smoke. The soils are a mix of sandy and clay loams with a good amount of diatomaceous earth. Dragonette's Chardonnay comes from two parcels: block 16, (clone 76) lies at 800-950 feet on a steep, west-southwest facing hillside above the monastery, and block 12 (clone 95), a steep south facing hillside just below and to the west. These higher elevation blocks are exposed to fog and clouds most mornings and high winds most afternoons, cooling the vineyard. The climate and the low vigour soils produce a small canopy, small yields and a long, slow growing season. The wines here typically show beautiful, ripe tropical fruit flavours, balanced by remarkable acidity and strong notes of chalky minerals.

2018 Dragonette, MJM Syrah, Sta. Rita Hills 12x75cl

JD97+
Blend: 95% Syrah, 4% Grenache and 1% Viognier Vintage Production: 340 cases MJM is Dragonette's signature, Syrah-based blend, named in honor of the team's wives and coconspirators in this venture,... Mitchi, Jen and Michelle. Syrah from cooler sites in Santa Barbara makes wines of extraordinary depth, aromatic complexity, elegance and longevity, on par with those from the great growing regions of the world. The John Sebastiano Vineyard (Sta. Rita Hills) has steep hillsides with sandy loam soils. Buffeted daily by high winds and steeped in fog, this cool site produces wines with remarkable aromatics and flavours of spices, dark fruits, meat and earth. Stolpman in (Ballard Canyon) boasts rolling hills of clay loam, underpinned with limestone. Extreme deficit farming and older vines (some 20+ years) produce low yields of spectacularly dark, intense red fruits and meaty notes. A portion of the fruit comes from the exclusive, steeply pitched high-density blocks which sit on thick bands of limestone. Larner (Ballard Canyon) has thin sandy soils on rolling hills. 20-year-old vines yield dark, rich, meaty Syrah fruit with blueberry fruits and game. The fruit from nearby Kimsey (Ballard Canyon) is dark with rich flavors of blueberries and blackberries seasoned with spices.

Blend: 100% Chardonnay Vintage Production: 145 cases The Duvarita Vineyard is in the far west of the region, sitting literally metres outside of the Sta.

The steep slopes sit on a combination of ancient sand dunes and sandstone, producing wines of characteristic depth and intensity. Dragonette's Chardonnay comes from the highest blocks, more influenced by the cooling Pacific fog and full of stone fruit and a crisp minerality, and we love the extra dimension on the palate that comes from lees contact. For some summer-dining inspiration, the regional seafood specialties are the famous local halibut and sea bass, either (or both!) of which are perfect with a glass of Duvarita Chardonnay.
