Product Description

LP100 The 2021 Chardonnay Coup de Coeur opens with intense lemon curd, yuzu, and fresh grapefruit notes, yet needs a little swirling to unlock the evocative undercurrent of sea spray, lime leaves, nutmeg, and toasted almonds with a waft of beeswax. The medium to full-bodied palate is tightly wound with electric citrus and baking spice notes and a crisp line of freshness to support, finishing with epic length and depth. So delicious now, but give it a good 4-5 years in the bottle to really spread its wings.

JD99 The 2021 Chardonnay Coup De Coeur takes its inspiration from Luc Morlet's time working at Peter Michael as well as the work of Helen Turley and is a blend of the top barrels from the Ma Douce and Ma Princesse. On opening, it displays very elegant notes of flint that frame the wine beautifully before giving way to aromas of fresh pineapple, candied lemon, fresh flowers, and delicate spice. Medium to full-bodied, it's rich without ever feeling heavy and has a weightless feel, with a great balance and more mineral persistence through the long finish. This extraordinary wine checks all the boxes for some of the highest quality white wines being made in Sonoma today.
