Second stop in Sonoma with Andrew Berge of Spell Estate, La Pitchoune and Tiny House to name a few. Next white from La Pitchoune is their Pratt Vineyard Chardonnay.

Medium to deep lemon yellow. Rich and full nose with marshmallows, vanilla, lemon curd and baked apples. Tangy acidity (7/10) and medium plus bodied. Lush flavors on the palate with some nice round edges of apples, lemons, a touch nutty and some stony elements. Smooth texture and lingering finish. Drink till 2026. $$$

Singing tonight! Smokey, minerally aromas mix with hints of crushed rock and Anis. The complexity! Ripe green apples and bosc pear flavors mingle with a lemon creme brulee character. Complete harmony!
