2019 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay
2019 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay
We sourced our 2019 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay from three of the top vineyard sites in the Sonoma Coast – Sangiacomo, Durell, and Gap’s Crown – with the goal of creating a cuvée that showcases the varietal’s exceptional character across the Sonoma Coast appellation. These diverse vineyards produced balanced crops in 2019 with high levels of concentration and detailed aromatics. An intriguing nose of stone fruit and yellow apple leads to rich flavors and a balanced mix of depth and vibrancy on the palate. Refreshing and layered, the elevage in 30% new French oak adds richness and texture.

"The 2019 ‘Sangiacomo Vineyard’ Chardonnay combines clone 95 with old Wente clone Chardonnay. Salted macadamia nut and melon tones mingle with stony minerals on the nose. The palate is fresh and vibrant with really good length and a seamless texture. Layers of brioche and lemon rind mingle with minerals and shades of wild mushroom on the palate. This is seamless Chardonnay that has some good aging potential." - Owen Bargreen
