Lioco
Sonoma County Chardonnay
The perfect rebuttal to 'I don't like chardonnay'. Cleaner, more mineral driven nose than a typical California chard. Lemon oil, crispy crunchy green apples and bright, youthful acidity! Not being muted by oak, fruit is the star power here. Still round on the palate from natural MF, the finish stays with you for minutes.

Aug 14th, 2016Reminiscent of a citrus orchard after a rain. Fresh, alive, and clean. The creaminess and weight of the body suggest ML, while nose and palate are led by zesty lemon peel. Burgundian is certainly a descriptor, as the chalkiness of that region is of major influence here.

Jul 13th, 2016Fresh and bright, none of that huge oak creaminess. A biting acidity and minerality, with some white pepper and stone.

May 30th, 2016This wine always over delivers! And tasting against a lineup of other new Cali Chardonnays it was the one that seemed most debatable as to whether it might be old world! So much citrus & wet rock & sea shell! Yum!

Mar 10th, 2016Clear straw yellow color. Aromas of stone fruit with herb notes. The palate shows Apricot, peach and sweet Apple with fresh acidity that packs a punch. Nice aftertaste and medium length finish delivering a great value from Sonoma Coast.
