Seascape Vineyard

2008 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay

The Hartford Court Seascape Vineyard Chardonnay from the 2008 vintage is a stunning representation of the Sonoma Coast's unique terroir. This wine displays a pale straw color, indicative of its bright and inviting character. With a medium body, it strikes a harmonious balance that envelops the palate without being overwhelming. The acidity is high, providing a crisp and refreshing mouthfeel that invigorates the senses and enhances food pairings. On the nose, it reveals prominent notes of citrus and stone fruit, complemented by hints of vanilla and a subtle mineral quality, showcasing its fruit intensity. The tannins are low and delicate, allowing the elegant flavors of the wine to shine through effortlessly. This Chardonnay is decidedly dry, making it an ideal choice for those who appreciate a clean and sophisticated white wine experience.

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.
