Winemaking Notes

The 2024 Amici Sonoma Coast Chardonnay is a vibrant, coastal-inspired wine that captures the freshness of the vintage. Aromas of Meyer lemon, white nectarine, and crisp green apple are layered with hints of jasmine, wet stone, and a touch of sea spray. On the palate, lively flavors of lemon curd and ripe pear mingle with notes of toasted almond and subtle baking spice, framed by bright, precise acidity. The earlier harvest and long, even growing season lend the wine a beautiful balance of energy and elegance, with a long, saline-tinged finish supported by well-integrated, toasty oak.

“Pretty, cooked apples with hints of pie crust and lemon rind with some light caramel. Medium-bodied with firm acidity and a long, crunchy finish. Minerally at the end. Drink or hold.”
