2023 Chardonnay Estate Reserve Platt Vineyard West Sonoma Coast 0,75 l

The 2023 Chardonnay Estate Reserve from Platt Vineyard is a polished, site-driven Chardonnay from the cool, maritime West Sonoma Coast. As an estate reserve bottling, it highlights the finest parcels of the vineyard and shows the kind of precision, restraint, and coastal energy that have made this part of California so exciting for Chardonnay lovers.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it presents a bright, pale-golden hue with a cool, refined character. The nose opens with citrus, lime, white peach, wet stone, and a subtle lift of herbs and saline minerality. The palate is taut, linear, and energetic, with crisp acidity and a finely textured mouthfeel. Flavors lean toward lemon zest, green orchard fruit, and mineral notes, finishing long, dry, and distinctly saline. This is a Chardonnay built for elegance rather than weight, and it should age gracefully over the next 5 to 8 years, developing greater complexity and depth with time.

Production
Sourced from Platt Vineyard on the West Sonoma Coast, this wine comes from one of California’s coolest and most maritime-influenced growing regions. Morning fog, ocean winds, and a long growing season help preserve freshness and build the wine’s signature tension and mineral clarity. The grapes were hand-harvested, spontaneously fermented, and matured for around 14 months in French barriques, with a high proportion of used oak to support the fruit without overpowering the site’s character.

Food & Serving
This Chardonnay is a natural match for oysters, scallops, raw fish, and shellfish, as well as delicate seafood dishes finished with lemon butter or fennel. Serve it well chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, to keep its freshness and precision in focus. Decanting is not necessary, though a short period in the glass can help the wine open up and reveal more layered aromatics.
