Wine Enthusiast, 94 Points  

"This rich and oaky wine is also well-balanced, complex and layered. Seductive aromas of apple tart, vanilla and lemon zest lead to a buttery palate of cream, toasted almonds and poached pears. A full body is backed by subtle acidity and a fresh apple vein that keeps it lively." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"The 2021 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay showcases three of the top vineyards in the Sonoma Coast – Sangiacomo, Durell, and Gap’s Crown – with the goal of creating a cuvée that illustrates the varietal’s exceptional character across the Sonoma Coast appellation. Yields were light in 2021 with the vines producing small clusters with tiny berries, resulting in concentrated wines of depth and balance. Each block was pressed whole cluster, fermented in 30% new French oak barrels and kept separate until their final blending. An expressive nose of stone fruit and apple leads to vibrant flavors and lively acidity." 

Alcohol: 14.1%
