More about this wine from Santa Lucia Highlands, California
The Carrier brand pays tribute to the soldiers and their pigeons who carried messages during World War II. With this "Broad Arrow" Chardonnay, Carrier showcases the terroir of the Northern Santa Lucia Highlands.

This Chardonnay is a wonderful example of a domestic wine with old-world character. Flavors and aromas here are dominated by tart golden apple, lemon meringue, toasted brioche, marshmallow and buttercream. In the background, you will also find a chalky mineral backbone working in tandem with a zippy amount of acid to keep the whole wine in balance.
