Ramey Fort Ross Seaview Chardonnay 2021

Aromatically the wine smells of warm buttered popcorn, melon, lemon, and white stones. On the palate, the wine is filled with ripe stone fruits, roasted almonds, and a lively wealth of acidity.

Coming from a special vineyard site, the Ramey Sonoma Coast Chardonnays show great depth of flavor, length of finish, aromatic complexity, and a fine balance between richness and delicacy. This vineyard has typically cool climates, low vigor soil, and a vine selection that generate small berries, small clusters and inherently low yields.

93 Points – Wine Enthusiast

This bracing, tangy, spicy wine boasts aromas of butter and toast, flavors of poached pears, vanilla and wood char, while a tingly, slightly gripping texture adds a crisp finish. Made from cool, coastal vineyards, it needs time to mellow in mouthfeel and gain more subtlety.
