The research and vineyard selection. _ For those of you in the quest for a delicious premium wine in the under $10.00 category,' the Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon Vichon Coastal Selection, distributed nationally since September 1992, are just what you' are looking for! Vichon has the advantage of access to grapes in the Napa Valley and the Santa Barbara area and the expertise to produce a quality wine at a great value. This. is part of the expanded "Vichon Vision" of the 90's with respect to the needs and desires of wine enthusiasts, under the guidance of Director of Winemaking Michael Weis and winemaker Karen Culler. The new Vichon Coastal Selection wines are the 1989 Cabernet Sauvignon and the 1991 Chardonnay. The Cabernet Sauvignon is delicious, full of berry flavors and a background of spice extracted from 22 months in small French Oak barrels. Definitely one that may be enjoyed now or laid away in the cellar to continue to mature and further enhance in complexity for several years. The Chardonnay exemplifies the distinct characteristics of the chardonnay grape, crisp and clean with citrus aromas and a touch of spice from seven months in French Oak before bottling, In addition to the Coastal Selection wines, Vichon produces five Napa Valley varietals, all equally worthy of praise: Chardonnay, Chevrigon (a proprietary' blend of Sauvignon . Blanc and Semillon), Merlot, Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, and Stags . Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon. Be a "Vichonary" and enjoy! .
