Chardonnay Sonoma Coast 2024
Sonoma Coast Chardonnay 2024 is sourced from vineyards planted to the Old Wente clone between Healdsburg and Windsor, where rolling benches, low hills, and river-adjacent terraces meet well-drained alluvial soils of gravel, sand, and loam. Strong Pacific fog influence preserves freshness, while warm afternoon sunshine allows the fruit to develop depth and concentration, resulting in a precise balance of acidity and flavor. The nose opens with Granny Smith apple, Meyer lemon, and kiwi, layered with lemongrass, watercress, chervil, and white flowers. On the palate, this medium-bodied Chardonnay shows nectarine, yellow apple, and peach, accented by limestone, dandelion, and arugula, finishing with clarity and energy. This wine pairs well with a Tuna Poke Salad.
