This Chardonnay is energetic and bright, balancing mouthwatering acidity, fresh citrus, and elegant texture with exceptional purity and precision. Meyer lemon and just-ripe mandarin orange mingle with pithy herbaceous notes and a fine mist of green citrus oil. On the palate, savory preserved lemon and a hint of spice complement the backbone of acidity. Briny ocean spray minerality lifts the tightly-knit texture, which expands across the mouth for a vibrant finish.​

The 2024 Sonoma Coast growing season was marked by dynamic weather patterns and was capped with a vigorous finish. After winter pruning, adequate rainfall kept soils saturated through early spring. Budbreak unfolded across the region just as the weather turned, ushering in summer conditional that were very favorable, supporting steady canopy development and shoot elongation. This was a crucial layer of protection for the year's strong and balanced yield, which was shaped by ample mid-season heat that compressed the ripening curve. We were then rewarded with a swift harvest, which was just a month long. The resulting wines bear fresh acidity, savory citrus, and lifted minerality—all characteristics that evoke the very essence of the far Sonoma Coast.
