Souverain Chardonnay, North Coast, California, 2011

First harvest 1944. Souverain was founded in 1944 by winemaking innovator Lee Stewart. The elements of its triumph are embodied by a crown, representing Souverain's award-winning history, a cluster of wine grapes, the California bear, and the whistle of Scotland, a nod to our founder's heritage. The storied wine that you hold in your hands is a celebrated Chardonnay elegantly layered with notes of pineapple, lemon, and creme brulee with aromas of roasted pears and baking spices rounding out the lush texture and lingering finish. www.souverain.com. 13.9% alc./vol.
