“We are proud to partner with Saintsbury,” said Bob McLachlan, the co-founder and national team lead for Green Glass Global. “Saintsbury has a remarkable history and has been instrumental in shaping the modern era of California Chardonnay and Pinot Noir by producing appellation and site-specific wines with balanced fruit, classic structure and the potential for aging.
