Description
Traditionally the richest Chardonnay each vintage, our Chloe bottling is grown on clay soils in the warmer central district of the Russian River Valley, inland from the coastal vineyards. Distinct from our other Sonoma Chardonnays, there’s no sand to be found in these soils, so this wine is layered, textural, and deeply flavored and leads with volume and generosity out front. Which is not to downplay its vibrancy or freshness, as it balances all this vineyard-derived richness with prominent poised acidity.
