Failla Sonoma Coast Chardonnay 2022 Review
Failla is a path of passion for winemaker Ehren Jordan. He focuses on cool-climate sites and cool-climate friendly grapes including Pinot Noir, Syrah, and Chardonnay. This Sonoma Coast Chardonnay is a beautiful example of how cool-climate expressions of this grape can shine. The nose is fragrant with notes of jasmine, citrus, and green herbs. The palate is elegant with supple depth and wonderful acidity. It's a pleasure to sip.
