Their shared vision is simple: to craft wines of purity, precision and transparency that express the unique character of place.\u003cbr\u003eThe project marks the first venture beyond France for both Étienne de Montille and Rodolphe Péters, combining the traditions and philosophies of Burgundy and Champagne with the exceptional vineyard potential of Sta. Rita Hills. Drawn by the region’s cool maritime climate and remarkable terroirs, the team focuses on producing elegant, site-driven expressions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.\u003cbr\u003eRacines represents a seamless fusion of Old World craftsmanship and New World opportunity. The resulting wines are defined by balance, finesse and a strong sense of origin, reinforcing Sta. Rita Hills' reputation as one of the world's premier regions for terroir-focused Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"378\" data-end=\"676\"\u003eSourced from two north-facing parcels within the famed Bentrock Vineyard, the wine draws complexity from contrasting soils and exposures. One parcel sits high on rocky, windswept slopes, while the other occupies a more sheltered site with sandy clay loam soils, contributing both tension and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"678\" data-end=\"917\"\u003eThe wine is a study in purity and finesse, offering aromas of crushed stone, lemon confit, white flowers and fresh mint. The palate is beautifully sculpted and precise, combining crystalline fruit with mineral intensity and vibrant energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"919\" data-end=\"1264\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eBright saline notes thread through the wine, carrying exceptional length and focus into a regal, lingering finish. Elegant, transparent and profoundly expressive of site, this is a world-class Chardonnay that beautifully marries the precision of Burgundy, the finesse of Champagne and the unique character of California’s cool coastal vineyards.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Racines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49249342030081,"sku":"21321","price":270.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0120\/7441\/8235\/files\/Untitleddesign_2.jpg?v=1781242825","url":"https:\/\/www.purviscellars.com.au\/products\/2020-racines-bentrock-vineyard-chardonnay","provider":"Purvis Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
