Fresh from start to finish, Mer Soleil SILVER is a pure expression of Chardonnay, produced from the ideal coastal conditions of Monterey county, California. Never seeing the inside of an oak barrel, it is fermented and aged in a combination of stainless steel and small concrete tanks imported from Burgundy, France. This wine features scents of creamy citrus and a distinct minerality that evokes wet granite encountered on a hike. SILVER is round and layered on the palate, with vibrant acidity and depth.

• SCENTS: Fresh lemon, orange marmalade, and the crisp smell of a first summer rain hitting a sidewalk

• FLAVORS: An enticing mix of lean freshness and voluptuous texture. Echoes the nose with lemon curd and marmalade

• VINEYARDS: The dramatic weather pattern of Monterey County creates a perfect temperate climate for Chardonnay

• FARMING NOTES: Due to the cooler climate, grapes ripen more slowly than in other regions, resulting in greater complexity, vibrant natural acidity

• STYLE DIFFERENTIATOR: With no exposure to oak and made in neutral vessels, SILVER awakens the entire palate with a rousing freshness

• AGING: Stainless steel and unlined concrete tanks allow wine to “breathe,” enhancing SILVER’s minerality and lively freshness
