Starmont Chardonnay was first introduced over 30 years ago as an expressive, approachable and thoughtfully crafted wine, under the Merryvale label. With the 2008 vintage, Starmont evolved into its own brand as part of the Merryvale Family of Wines.

Today, the Starmont portfolio continues to be led by fan-favorite Carneros Chardonnay and has grown to include a total of six wines that deliciously celebrate the natural bounty, regional distinction, sustainable farming and artisanal lifestyle of Northern Californiaʼs wine regions.

STARMONT CHARDONNAY
The original Starmont wine, this Carneros Chardonnay is generous and fresh, showing classic regional fruit expression, namely bright citrus, apple, subtle tropical fruits, baking spice and light vanilla oak notes.
FOOD PAIRING:  Enjoy on its own or with an array of lightly creamed pastas, grilled chicken and seasonal salads.

STARMONT SAUVIGNON BLANC
A beautifully aromatic and balanced Sauvignon Blanc sourced from Lake and Sonoma counties that shows fresh lime leaf, lemongrass and citrus blossom notes with hints of rich tropical fruits.
