Tasting Note

This is a classic cool climate Chardonnay made in a traditional style. Pale straw colour in the glass. Aromas of citrus, Anjou pears, baking spice, and flint waft from the glass. Mouth-coating viscosity on the palate balanced by naturally fresh, crisp acidity. Completely dry, this is an elegantly balanced and structured Chardonnay.

Product Notes

The Qupé Y Block Chardonnay is a full-bodied, California-style white wine that offers a rich and buttery flavor profile. This wine is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes grown in the famous Bien Nacido Vineyard, located in the Santa Maria Valley AVA of Central Coast California. The vines for this wine are specifically grown in the Y Block of the vineyard, which is known for producing high-quality Chardonnay grapes. The Qupé Y Block Chardonnay has bright tropical fruit flavors, such as pineapple and melon, with a hint of vanilla and toast from the oak aging. This wine is a great choice for wine lovers who enjoy a full-bodied and luxurious Chardonnay.

About the Winery

Qupé

Qupé is a notable Californian Central Coast winemaker known for its handmade Rhône varieties and Chardonnay. Bob Lindquist started it in 1982. The winery's production of its initial Syrah grape variety in the region of Santa Barbara helped Qupé establish its great aesthetic. Qupé produces a variety of wines, Syrahs, and many Rhône white varietals with a focus on the outstanding wines of France's Rhône region. Qupé was regarded as one of the benchmarks for cool climate Syrah and contributed to the development of Santa Barbara County as a premier California wine area. For eight of the previous nine years, Qupé has been ranked among the "Best 100 Wineries in America."
