Tasting Notes

The 2016 vintage was outstanding for us on the Sonoma Coast. The Chardonnay is a standout offering layers and layers of fruit, spice, and minerality. There is a blend of heady floral notes and citrus spice that evolve and change as the wine opens. The mouthfeel is incredibly inviting; the smooth entry broadens out across the palate, and there is weight and depth to the wine that certainly shows it is a cellar worthy wine as well as a great food wine.
