BloodRoot, Chardonnay Sonoma Coast, 2021
is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
BloodRoot is a collaborative project by some of Sonoma’s top winemakers, crafting site-driven wines that overdeliver for the price. Their Sonoma Coast Chardonnay showcases the region’s signature cool-climate elegance, blending fruit from fog-laced vineyards that benefit from Pacific breezes. The 2021 vintage, shaped by a long, steady growing season, offers both vibrancy and depth—a Chardonnay that balances richness with restraint.
Lemon curd, crisp pear, and green apple form the core, with hints of white flowers, wet stone, and a touch of toasted almond from judicious oak aging. The texture is supple yet refreshing, with bright acidity keeping it lifted and precise. Compared to riper, oakier California Chardonnays, BloodRoot’s expression leans more Burgundian, focusing on purity and minerality rather than overt richness.
A versatile companion to seafood, roast chicken, or creamy pastas, this is a Chardonnay that’s as compelling on its own as it is at the table. Enjoy now for its youthful energy, or cellar for a few years to let its layers unfold.
