Joe Wagner, a fifth-generation winemaker and founder of Belle Glos, has announced the launch of its newest varietal and the brand?s first white wine, Belle Glos Glasir Holt Chardonnay. Belle Glos is known for making luxurious, terroir-driven pinot noirs from maritime-influenced vineyards in California. Positioned near the ocean in Northern California, the Glasir Holt Vineyard sits on the western edge of Santa Rita Hills. Although Wagner?s intentions were to grow Pinot Noir on this vineyard, a small portion of the land had an enticing chalky-like characteristic to the soil, primarily due to the high PH level and its calcareous nature. Wagner decided to try something new and plant Chardonnay vines. Due to the maritime impact of the ocean, cool days, and cooler nights, he was able to grow this mineral-driven Chardonnay, resulting in a classic, elegant style of wine, mirroring the rest of the Belle Glos portfolio.
The Belle Glos Glasir Holt Chardonnay offers aromas of pie crust, lightly toasted marshmallow, banana cream pie, and hints of granny smith apple. On the palate, the wine finds large, luscious tones of melon, bright apple, and hints of buttery brioche. The wine has a well-balanced mouthfeel that dances on the palate with bright and lively acidity and minerality, resulting in a phenomenal expression of a coastal-driven Chardonnay.
