Central Coast Chardonnay and Viognier from Santa Lucia Highlands.

Mer Soleil produces Chardonnay and Viognier from California's Santa Lucia Highlands, a cool-climate pocket of Monterey County on the Central Coast. The winery's portfolio centers on white wines that reflect the region's maritime influence and diurnal temperature swings. The Reserve Santa Barbara Chardonnay and Silver Chardonnay anchor the range, joined by a Late Harvest White made from Viognier. Wine Enthusiast and Wine Advocate have rated the winery's releases, with the Reserve Santa Barbara Chardonnay earning particular recognition among prestige critics. The Santa Lucia Highlands' elevation and proximity to the Pacific shape wines built on acidity and mineral structure—hallmarks of the region's finest expressions.
