Radio-Coteau Savoy Vineyard Chardonnay, Anderson Valley

The Radio-Coteau Savoy Vineyard Chardonnay from Anderson Valley is a compelling expression of this cool-climate region, showcasing meticulous farming and non-interventionist winemaking. Sourced from the esteemed Savoy vineyard, this Chardonnay is characterized by exceptional balance and precision. It typically avoids overt oak, favoring instead purity of fruit and vibrant minerality. On the palate, expect complex layers of green apple, lemon curd, and subtle wet stone. Fermentation and aging in primarily neutral French oak help maintain the wine's tension and focused acidity, leading to a long, clean finish. This is a sophisticated, terroir-driven Chardonnay that pairs beautifully with refined cuisine like pan-seared scallops or roasted chicken.
