More About 2021 Co^lluvial Las Nenas La Rinconada Vineyard Chardonnay Fernando Fernandez, the founder of Co^lluvial Wine and Certified Sommelier, agrees that wine quality comes from vineyards and that terroir significantly impacts the final product. The winery gets its name from colluvial soils, which consist of weathered materials that accumulate at the foot of a steep slope through water erosion or landslides, providing a vast array of soil complexity for growing vines. The La Rinconada Vineyard was planted in 1997 in Santa Rita Hills’ distinct soils and climate, with 20 vineyard blocks and 12 clones of primarily Pinot Noir, alongside some exceptional Chardonnay plantings. “Las Nenas” is dedicated to Fernando’s most precious blessings, his three beautiful daughters, and the 2021 vintage offers bright fruit and layers of complexity, as one would expect from three different personalities, each adding their unique spice and character.
