Heintz

2009 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay

The Landmark Heintz Chardonnay from the Sonoma Coast is a stunning representation of this celebrated varietal. This white wine showcases a full-bodied profile, balanced by refreshing acidity that invigorates the palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing layers of ripe pear, green apple, and subtle notes of citrus, all harmoniously entwined with delicate hints of vanilla and oak from time spent aging in barrels. With well-integrated, medium tannins, this Chardonnay delivers a smooth, mouthwatering finish that lingers delightfully. Dry but not austere, the 2009 vintage exemplifies the elegance and complexity that the Sonoma Coast region can produce. This wine is truly a pleasure to savor, making it an excellent choice for any occasion.

Sonoma County

Many of California's world-class wines come from Sonoma County, separated from Napa by the Mayacamas Mountains. Three times the size of Napa, Sonoma is an incredibly diverse region. Cool coastal zones, fog-cloaked hillsides, sheltered valleys and craggy exposed peaks give Sonoma a vast array of terroirs and microclimates. Its many sub-regions produce a broad range of styles: from the bold Cabernets of Alexander Valley to the fragrant Pinots of Sonoma Coast and the sublime Chardonnays of Chalk Hill.
