In 1969, the Sangiacomo’s Green Acres vineyard was planted in part to the original Old Wente clone of Chardonnay. Saintsbury partnered with the Sangiacomo family in 1981 and for 33 years has made Chardonnay from the Green Acres vineyard. Now, we are thrilled to release the single-vineyard designate Green Acres Chardonnay.
