Llewelyn Wine ‘God Moving Over the Face of the Waters’ Chardonnay 2022 Review
Llewelyn Wine is a project from winemaker Pete Bloomberg based out of Cloverdale in northern Sonoma County. He sources grapes from the neighboring regions, only working with organic, family-run farms that work without irrigation — like this Chardonnay from the Lolonis Vineyard in Mendocino’s Redwood Valley. The wine channels the savory complexity of a Jura Chardonnay, with some rich, oxidative notes of roasted hazelnuts, salted butter, preserved lemon rinds, and zippy acidity.
