Region: Sonoma County, California

Vintage: 2017

Composition: 100% Chardonnay

History: Our love for Cabernet spans decades, our passion for Pinot Noir runs to our very core. We have long admired and enjoyed the lush, richly flavored, and bright Pinot Noirs from California’s Sonoma Coast. In 2007, we, along with good friends David and Judy Steiner became the proud owners of a phenomenal parcel of land, two ridgelines in from the Sonoma coastline. Thanks to the vineyard management prowess of Ulises Valdez and winemaking excellence of Thomas Rivers Brown, what started out as a grassy, untamed hilltop where wild boars roamed freely, has been transformed into a world-class Sonoma Coast vineyard, our Boars’ View.

Tasting Notes:

Hints of lemon confit, flowering jasmine, and dried apricots are joined on the palate by notes of toasted almonds, brioche, and crème caramel. The lush cornucopia of aromas is balanced with hints of provocative limestone minerality that together represent the finest expression of Sonoma Coast Chardonnay. The result is a gorgeous wine possessing a silky, round mouthfeel with a singular elegance.
