These grapes grew well, but did not produce the extraordinary wine we 1920 associate with California today. This changed with the arrival of the exceptional 1949 grapevines from ancient vineyards in Europe.

  • Buena Vista Sonoma Chard 11
    sonoma 2011 Chardonnay ith its roots so deeply ensconced in Wthe foundations of Sonoma where it was established in 1857, Buena Vista Winery is again introducing wines from Sonoma. The Sonoma wines include a diverse array of varietals that celebrate the diversity of Sonoma’s terroir and the contribution of Buena Vista to establishing the California wine world. The 2011 Buena Vista Winery Sonoma Chardonnay comes from some of the finest vineyards in Sonoma. The diversity of Sonoma County’s landscape is what makes it so perfect for grape growing. The strong maritime influence results in cool nights, and days that rarely get too hot, contributing to layers of oceanic fog that creep into Sonoma’s interior valleys. The 2011 growing season experienced cooler than normal temperatures, allowing for slow and even ripening . This resulted in gradual development on the vine, leading to intense, concentrated flavors. This 2011 Sonoma Chardonnay is a medium-bodied wine with aromas of apple and pear and some toasted almond nuances. These flavors carry over to the palate with the addition of honeycomb on the tongue and subtle creaminess. It strikes the perfect balance of acidity and structure, making it the ideal companion to many of your favorite dishes. Fermentation: 90% Stainless Steel; 10% new French oak barrels Alcohol: 13.5% pH: 3.68 Total Acidity: 6.8 g/L cabernet sauvignon • chardonnay • the count • merlot • pinot noir • sauvignon blanc • zinfandel Buena Vista Historic Winery 18000 Old Winery Road Sonoma, CA 95476 800.326.1266 www.buenavistawinery.com A STORY LIKE NO OTHER uena Vista Winery has a rich, delicious heritage as the first premium–and certainly the most colorful–of all of the wineries in California.

  • Buena Vista Sonoma the Count 13
    sonoma 2013 the count Founder's Red Wine he winery’s colorful founder, The Count of Buena TVista, pioneered premium winemaking in California. A tireless and passionate devotee of California wine, The Count imported hundreds of premium vines from Europe, dug Sonoma’s first wine caves, introduced innovative viticulture techniques, and wrote the first treatise on California wine. Buena Vista Winery honors his legacy, bold vision, and commit- ment to excellence through this red wine – the Founder’s Red Wine. From prestigious vineyards across Sonoma, The Count’s intrigu- ing blend of varietals intermingle seamlessly to produce an elegant and complex wine. Individual lots were fermented separately in open and closed-top fermenters and aged for 11 months in Hungarian, French and American oak barrels before final assemblage and bottling. Our 2013 vintage of The Count - Founder’s Red Wine offers seductively teasing aromas of rich dark chocolate, nutmeg and a subtle hint of cinnamon. Dark fruit flavors swathe the palate of this nicely structured, well-balanced wine that culminates in a long, dense finish that sails on and on. This immedi- ately enjoyable wine will continue to evolve in the bottle over the next two to three years. Try it alongside barbequed beef or country-style pork ribs.
