Mer Soleil Silver Chardonnay 2021

Never seeing the inside of an oak barrel, Mer Soleil SILVER is a pure, clean expression of Chardonnay. It is fermented and aged in a combination of stainless steel and small concrete tanks imported from Burgundy, France.

A sun-kissed, light gold color, scents of peach, apricot, Meyer lemon, vanilla wafers, and honey. The nose brings additional interest with subtle notes of truffle, mesquite smoke and the kind of savory saltiness that drifts off a coastal shore. The palate is fresh and round, with a minerality that evokes wet stone and steel, as well as a lively acidity that balances lush fruit flavors. Crisp and lingering on the finish, this wine pairs extremely well with salads, grilled seafood, tomato-based dishes, and fresh oysters.
