2016 Morlet Family Chardonnay Ma Douce
UNITED STATES / CALIFORNIA / SONOMA
Wine Advocate | Rating: 95
The 2016 Chardonnay Ma Douce is from a vineyard in Fort Ross Sea View not far from Marcassin, on the second ridge in from the ocean and located at 1,300-1,500 feet in elevation. The vines are Old Wente clones planted on Goldridge soils. It begins a little youthfully reticent, opening out to notes of warm peaches, grapefruit, pear tart and toasted almond with hints of baking bread and chalk dust. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a beautifully satiny texture with a racy line lifting the savory layers to a nice long finish. 650 cases were made.Drink Dates: 2019 - 2030Author: Lisa Perrotti-BrownIssue: Mid-October 2018 New Releases
