From the producer: 

The 2023 Aries Chardonnay is a thoughtfully crafted selection of barrels sourced from our premier single vineyard Chardonnays, showcasing the finest expressions from key sub-AVAs within the revered Sonoma Coast. Included are key vineyard sites in the Green Valley and Petaluma Gap sub-AVAs, complemented by our very own Marine Layer Vineyard Chardonnay nestled in the Sebastopol Hills. These sites, characterized by their foggy, cool evenings, distinctive microclimates, and varied soil compositions, collectively define the sought-after terroir of the Sonoma Coast. Bright and vibrant, yet mineral-driven and nuanced.

Left White Wine

Union Sacré is the result of a partnership between Xavier Arnaudin (winemaking) and Philip Muzzy (label design, etc..), who arrived at the Central Coast from opposite ends of the Earth. Xavier is a WSET certified, oenology degree holder from France, Philip is a self-taught designer from Michigan who kind of misses living in a van.

Between the two of them, Xavier and Philip have 25+ years experience working in Central Coast wineries. Xavier has been cellar master or assistant winemaker for some of the Central Coasts most luminous wineries. Philip cut his teeth at Proof Wine Collective.

Xavier has such a delicate touch which is pretty funny considering he originally trained to be a boxer back in France. His wines have a way of being lovely and elegant while remaining imminently drinkable. They are also an incredible value. I’d pay two to three times their price for these just because they’re so vibrant, fresh and energetic.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 92
"The 2023 Chardonnay Aries is a gorgeous appellation-level wine. Bright and focused, with notable tension, the 2023 is seriously impressive. Lemon confit, marzipan, white flowers and chalk all race out the glass. The energy of the vintage shines. This is such a classy wine." -Antonio Galloni

Decanter

D 93
"Mostly puncheon with a couple concrete eggs for fermentation, with Chardonnay coming from the Marine Layer Vineyard as well as Heintz, Gaps Crown, Durrell and Hawk Hill vineyards, along with six rows of Bohemian Vineyard. A tremendous value at under $50, this Chardonnay with intense citrus cream aromatics, with notes of canded ginger. The palate shows lush notes of pineapple, Meyer lemon and ripe mangoes with crunchy saline minerality and soaring acidity brightens the ripe fruit through to the finish."
