Whole cluster pressed chardonnay. We don’t promote or prohibit malolactic fermentation, allowing wine to be in balance, bright and elegant.
Produced with the intention of aging and cellaring for at least 10 years and can easily be enjoyed after 15 years.
With the goal of expressing a comprehensive expression of the appellation, we selected four unique vineyard sites to create this Sta. Rita Hills bottling. This blend is comprised of 3D, Machado, Acin and Hapgood vineyards. While each lot is handled separately and in a completely uniform fashion in the winery, each contributes vastly different expressions which ultimately harmonize in the finished wine.
Founded in 1995 by Greg Brewer, one of the founding fathers of the Sta. Rita Hills AVA. The wines are made from Estate grown fruit with rocky, maritime based soils. The specialties are chardonnay and pinot noir using 100% whole cluster. Brewer Clifton is proudly a sustainable vineyard using organic farming. Greg Brewer was awarded winemaker of the year in 2020 for Wine Enthusiast Magazine.

Notes of lemon zest flank concentrated apple pastry and white peach flavors in this white, with creamy accents and a minerally finish.
