2015 La Pitchoune Chardonnay Sonoma Coast

Estate: La Pitchoune Winery
Region: Sonoma Coast, North Coast, California, United States of America
Vineyard: Pratt, Dutton Sullivan and Bootlegger vineyards


Tasting Note:May 25, 2018

Medium lemon yellow in appearance. Rich nose with brioche and lemon curd. No new oak so aromas definitely come from the malo. Medium acidity (6.5/10) and medium plus body. More going on with the palate compared to the nose with notes of stone and tropical fruits, as well as a bit of minerality. Nicely rounded with a medium plus to long finish.


Second stop in Sonoma with Andrew Berge of Spell Estate, La Pitchoune and Tiny House to name a few. Next white from La Pitchoune is their Sonoma Coast Chardonnay which from the Pratt, Dutton Sullivan and Bootlegger vineyards.
