Au Bon Climat, Santa Barbara Chardonnay, California ‘06
Grape: Chardonnay
Each: £17.00
DOZEN OFFER - £184 (£15.33 each)
Jim Clendenen is a giant in the US wine industry. After a brief year out in France Jim returned to California, graduated in Pre-Law at UC Santa Barbara and then chose to turn his back on a seemingly obvious career path. Bitten by the wine bug, he worked in the Zaca Mesa winery before establishing Au Bon Climat in 1982. The estate has prospered, its reputation seemingly enhanced with every vintage and Jim is deservedly recognised, not just by himself, as a pioneer force in Californian Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
This is the ABC house Chardonnay. Made with Californian fruit in a Burgundian style.
