2010 Patz & Hall Sonoma Coast Chardonnay
14.2% alc., $35. Sourced from Gap’s Crown, Durell,
Dutton Ranch, Sun Chase, and Parmalee Hill vineyards. Whole cluster pressed, indigenous yeast
fermentations, aged sur lie with weekly stirring, 100% malolactic fermentation in barrel, aged in 40%
new French oak barrels, and bottled without filtration.
·
Pale straw color in the glass. Pleasant perfume
of baked pear, honey and toast. Moderately rich with a comforting smoothness, featuring lemony, nutty,
toasty flavors with a hint of toffee, leaving some lemon-driven scent on the lively finish. Seamless and
thoroughly enjoyable. Very good.
