Today’s Pip Wines 2011 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay was crafted from the Durell Vineyard, the very same vineyard that provides fruit for ultra-premium labels such as Kistler, Chateau St. Jean, and Chasseur.

A glistening bright gold in the glass, this wine has bright aromatic notes of lemon zest, vanilla bean, and white flower blossom leaping from the glass. On the palate, touches of soft butterscotch and Meyer lemon are framed by an invigorating, zippy acidity.

If you dig silky, clean finishing Chardonnays - with a pedigree that punches way above the price point - today’s Pip Sonoma Coast Chardonnay is the one for you.
