2018 ChardonnaySonoma Coast Single Vineyard
Platt Vineyard is a stunning coastal hillside ranch. The vineyard sits along the ridgeline high above the morning fog. The vines are planted in highly coveted Goldridge fine sandy loams. This spectacular coastal vineyard ripens small crops of intense fruit.

Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a laser-precise backbone of refreshing acidity cutting through the intense citrus and mineral layers, finishing with an impressively long-lasting Chablis-like steeliness. Oh yeah, that’s good!
Tasting Notes
Our inaugural vintage from Platt Vineyard is truly a special wine. Acclaimed critic Jeb Dunnuck summarizes it nicely…”Pure class…Gorgeous notes of buttered lemons, green almonds, tart pineapple, and white flower notes all define the 2018 Chardonnay, which offers Chablis-like minerality, medium bodied richness, racy acidity and a great finish.”
