Check out the Platinum Sparkling Rosé From CedarCreek Estate Winery Exclusively at Artisan Wine Shop.

The Terroir Collection Jagged Rock vineyard Chardonnay was sourced from vines planted almost 20 years ago, providing an excellent foundation and key characteristics of this unique wine style. The Jagged rock vineyard is comprised of arid benchlands that feature mostly sand-based soil. This forces the vines to source out water deep beneath the soil into the rock below leading to strong vines and more dynamic wines.
