2020 FOXEN ERNESTO WICKENDEN VINEYARD SANTA MARIA VALLEY CHENIN BLANC

Foxen’s Chenin Blanc comes from one of the oldest plots of Chenin Blanc in the United States, the Ernesto Wickenden vineyard, planted in 1966. Located inside the Santa Maria Valley AVA, the vineyard benefits from the cool air that funnels in from the Pacific Ocean to the sun-drenched hillsides, giving a much-needed cooling effect. This climate allows for optimum ripeness with crisp acidity that’s palpable in this exceptional wine.

Ernesto Wickenden’s old vines produce low yields of highly concentrated grapes adding greater complexity and a rich texture, commingled with honey, tropical fruits, and floral aromas. The 2020 vintage is a stunning wine that stood out in a crowd of dozens of other wines when tasted by our tasting panel, doing so for an unbelievably low price.
