2021 Sonoma-Cutrer Vineyards Chardonnay Sonoma Coast
2021 Sonoma-Cutrer Vineyards Chardonnay Sonoma Coast“The Sonoma Coast is as much about lifestyle as it is about the celebration this wonderful grape deserves. Our winemakers are selective about the fruit that goes into this wine to ensure that vintage after vintage, we are producing an exceptional Chardonnay. This wine has all of the elements of a classic Chardonnay. It is a wine you serve when you want to show people you care about them. Or, sometimes it’s just for you – because you’ve earned it.” – Winery
As you pour, you are greeted with stone fruit aromas of white peach and nectarine along with scents of juicy melon combining with oak spice hints of vanilla, toasted nuts, light caramel and subtle notes of cinnamon. The creamy richness of this wine boasts flavors of ripe pear and peach that give it an elegant, beautiful balance that is seamless from start to finish. Our Sonoma Coast is mouth filling with lots of finesse that leads to a lush finish. The balanced vibrant acidity and long barrel spice finish round out a nice length of flavor.
These wines always are normally only available to restaurants and never to the public. However with the pandemic we were able to get an allocation to offer. If you love California Chardonnay, this is your wine. This is the quintessential California Chardonnay in all its glory and a great one at that. A shipment has just arrived, grab a case while you can, this is a fast mover, going… going…
