Sonoma Coast Chardonnay

Grafted Cellars Chardonnay from the renowned Sonoma Coast region is an exceptional expression of this beloved varietal. This wine showcases a harmonious balance, boasting a rich, full body that envelops the palate with luxurious flavors.

Fruit intensity is high, with pronounced notes of ripe apple, pear, and a hint of tropical pineapple, all gracefully complemented by subtle nuances of vanilla and a whisper of oak from delicate barrel aging. This Chardonnay captures the essence of its coastal terroir, delivering a sophisticated wine that is equally delightful on its own or paired with a variety of dishes. Elegant and versatile, it’s a Gold Medal-winning white that exudes confidence and charm in every sip.

Stretching along California's raw and rugged northern shores—and reaching quite far inland—Sonoma Coast is the largest AVA in Sonoma County. The proximity to the ocean makes wines here very different from those from more central AVAs. Whether the vineyards are on high ridges above the fog line or warm, fog-shrouded valley floors, the marine soils, low temperatures and cool Pacific breezes slow the ripening of the grapes. The result? Highly structured, delicate wines with plenty of acidity. The main stars here are white peach-tinged Chardonnay and wild strawberry-flavored Pinot Noir, but you will also find some excellent cool-climate Syrah with notes of white pepper and cherry.
