Product Overview
In 1980, Frey Vineyards became America’s first organic winery. More than 40 years later, they continue to excel in making minimally invasive, organically processed wines from the highest quality organic fruit. It is this combination of sustainability and savoir-faire that underpins their 2019 “Sun & Rain” Organic Chardonnay. This medium-bodied white is free from synthetic sulfites and other additives, honoring the flavors of the fruit, the natural fermentation, and the rugged Mendocino terroir.
Frey’s organic “Sun & Rain” Chardonnay is bright and lively, brimming with plush aromas of honeysuckle, stone fruits, and a spritz of zesty citrus. On the palate, it delivers vibrant flavors of ripe, juicy peaches, creamy lemon custard, and a crisp minerality on the finish. Expect a smooth mouthfeel, some ripe acidity, and, as the name suggests, the pure, natural flavors of the elements. This is a refined, aromatic Chardonnay, perfect for warm weather al fresco dinner parties or an after-supper sip on the porch.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I serve the Frey 2019 “Sun & Rain” Organic Chardonnay with?
This excellent organic Chardonnay is an ideal wine pairing for vegan cuisine. This bright and lively wine will not overwhelm more delicate plant-based flavors and tender fresh vegetables. That being said, it also balances beautifully with anything creamy, to really bring out those buttery endnotes. Try it with pasta in a cashew cream sauce, a rich avocado salad, or a creamy vegan risotto, topped with grilled asparagus.
