This unique Sonoma Coast vineyard is situated on the second ridge from the Pacific Ocean and is comprised of Goldridge soil. The vines benefit from both the cool maritime breeze (douce brise) and the mild and sunny mountain climate. Handcrafted using classical Burgundian winemaking techniques, this wine is dedicated to Luc’s wife, Jodie Morlet. It is ‘My Sweet’ or ‘Ma Douce.’
Winemaker notes:
Full yellow color, the ‘Ma Douce’ Chardonnay consistently exudes aromas of lemon drop, crème brûlée and orange zest intermixed with strong notes of minerality (wet stones) and fresh hazelnut. Full-bodied and mineral driven, this wine displays a creamy texture and a very long mineral finish. Built to age gracefully for a decade, this wine is approachable when young.
