Sonoma-Cutrer Les Pierres Vineyard Chardonnay 2018 Review
The Sonoma-Cutrer winery offers a widely available line of Sonoma wines. The winery is known for balanced affordable wines that are solid go-to's. They also know how to bring the focus. Here they are going micro and offering us a single vineyard Chardonnay. It is a unique expression of sweet and savory with aromas of bistro butter (the fancy house-made stuff) and hints of white pepper. The aromas are supported by a good depth of fruit with nice balanced acidity giving the wine a welcome, creamy mouthfeel that makes the citrus notes pop a little more.
