Fess Parker 2023 Santa Barbara Chardonnay – 92-Point Coastal Elegance

Experience the crisp sophistication of this 92-point rated Santa Barbara Chardonnay from Fess Parker, a vibrant expression of California’s Central Coast. The 2023 vintage opens with layered aromas of zesty grapefruit rind, crushed limestone, and Meyer lemon peel, leading to a palate that balances chalky minerality with a silky touch of sea salt—perfect for lovers of complex, food-friendly whites.

Why This Wine Stands Out:
– Critic-Adored Profile: Wine Enthusiast praises its “tightly coiled” aromatics and textured finish
– Coastal Terroir: Sourced from Santa Barbara’s cool-climate vineyards, delivering bright acidity and structure
– Versatile Pairing: Complements seafood, roasted poultry, or creamy cheeses beautifully
– Balanced Craftsmanship: 13.5% ABV for approachable elegance without heaviness

Ideal for collectors and casual sippers alike, this limited-availability Chardonnay showcases Fess Parker’s legacy of crafting premium Central Coast wines. Serve chilled to unlock its evolving citrus and mineral notes.
