Simi Chardonnay Wine

About Simi

Established in 1876, SIMI Winery was founded by brothers Giuseppe and Pietro Simi, who had emigrated from Italy in the mid-1800’s. The business later was passed down to Giuseppe’s 18-year-old daughter Isabelle, who became a female pioneer in the wine industry. “Wine is all about the nose, and putting it to the grindstone.” Isabelle Simi knew this better than anyone. She steered the winery with defiant determination for more than 70 years, persevering to better every last drop. In fact, in 1920, when the federal government threw down a deadly blow in the form of Prohibition, she didn’t give up. She rolled up her sleeves and applied her wit. She held strong, and came out even stronger in the end. SIMI is now one of Sonoma County’s longest-standing institutions with a world-class winemaking team sourcing quality fruit from esteemed vineyards in Alexander Valley and Russian River Valley. Great wine begins in the vineyard, which is why SIMI made its home in the heart of the spectacular Sonoma County more than 140 years ago. The specialized and diverse Alexander Valley and Russian River Valley vineyards allow SIMI to craft a remarkable range of wines, from powerful, nuanced cabernet sauvignons to cool, elegant chardonnays. And thanks to eco-friendly practices and a dedication to sustainability, SIMI officially became green-certified in 2008.

California Wines

California wine production has a rich viticulture history since 1680 when Spanish Jesuit missionaries planted Vitis vinifera vines native to the Mediterranean region in their established missions to produce wine for religious services. In the 1770s, Spanish missionaries continued the practice under the direction of the Father Junípero Serra planted California’s first vineyard at Mission San Juan Capistrano.

The state produces about ninety percent of the American wine supply and is the fourth largest wine producer among the world’s independent nations. It has more than 1,200 wineries ranging from home-grown and small boutiques to large corporations with international distribution.

Reflecting SIMI Winery’s spirit of always striving and constantly evolving, SIMI Sonoma County Chardonnay White Wine showcases flavors of the best growing regions in Sonoma County. This California wine opens with expressive aromas of baked apple and pear, a spritz of citrus, and hints of cream, roasted marshmallow, clove, and vanilla. Each sip of this SIMI chardonnay features tangerine, lemon, butterscotch, and shortbread cookie flavors. Aged for eight months in French and American oak barrels, this fine wine offers crisp acidity, gentle oak spice, a rich and creamy mouthfeel, and balanced minerality on the finish. This food-friendly California chardonnay wine is a perfect companion to smoked salmon with lemon aioli and toasted brioche; spot prawns sautéed with garlic, lemon, and parsley; or a caprese salad with ripe peach slices, basil, and fresh mozzarella. For best taste, chill this 750 mL bottle of wine in the refrigerator for two to two and a half hours before serving.
