Made up of five different vineyard blocks with vine-age ranging from five to twenty-five years old, the 2019 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay is a dynamic introduction to our Chardonnay portfolio. As the vision for this wine continues to evolve, our team has gravitated to both lower percentage of new French Oak along with a smaller portion of malolactic fermentation - a desire to preserve freshness and purity.
Clone 4, a derivative of the old Martini clone, is a luscious Chardonnay selection with plenty of acidity and verve. The 2019 portion of the blend is precise with apple blossom, fresh linen, and baking spice. Clone 76 adds green apple and lychee to the nose while providing added depth and complexity to the palate.
Together, the blend is playful and engaging and a perfect companion with your next perfect meal.
