2022 Weather Sonoma Coast Chardonnay
TASTING NOTES:
The 2022 Weather Sonoma Coast Chardonnay is rich and vibrant—sourced from Sonoma’s cool, ocean coast. Pale gold tones with straw-colored edges signal its freshness and richness. Zesty aromas of citrus peel, marmalade, and apple blossom deliver lemon confit and fresh apricot with hints of sea stone on its weighty palate. Aged for 10 months in 30 percent new French oak.
VINTAGE NOTES:
The 2022 Sonoma Coast, California growing season started with a stretch of sunny days with a well-timed downpour prompting an early bud break. The summer season was sunny, steady, and mild with late-season heat. Occasional heat spikes were balanced by cool marine fog in the mornings and evenings. The enduring, moderate conditions through to harvest time confirmed 2022 as an exceptional vintage producing intriguing, vibrant wines with complex flavor development.
