Lot 65 2024 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay 750ml

Crafted from 53-year-old, dry-farmed Chardonnay vines just outside of Occidental in the Sonoma Coast appellation, Lot 65 is an ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL, MIND-BLOWING Burgundy-meets-California styled beauty!

Gorgeously aromatic and just dripping with mouthwatering minerality, this is perhaps the finest Chardonnay I have ever put into the bottle, certainly in the top 3!

Not much I can say about the producer other than they know more than just about anyone about vineyard sourcing on the north coast and the winemaking is, without a doubt, world-class. 

Normally priced for just over $60/bottle (actually a decent value given the wine scores in the mid-90's!), Lot 65 2024 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay can be yours for the quite reasonable price of just $18/bottle!

This wine is every bit as good as, if not better than, Lot 4 2023 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay (personally, I think it's better and I know it's less expensive). If you missed Lot 4, then you won't want to miss this Lot 65. Quite frankly, for those of you of the gorgeous, mouthwatering Burgundian persuasion of California Chardonnay, this is a don't miss either way.

Pale gold with a hint of green in the glass. Grilled Meyer lemon, apricot, pineapple, beeswax and brioche burst forth, framed by jasmine and honeysuckle blossoms all riding a beam of citrus-dusted crushed slate. Beautifully textured on the palate with perfectly ripe fruit, absolutely glorious, mouthwatering viscosity backed with lemon oil and sweet-tart crusted acidity providing incredible tension. The finish is chock full of toasty lemon and lemon cream pie notes echoing for seemingly forever in am beautiful finish. Seductive and dense with outrageous texture, mouthfeel, and chiseled precision, this is a hell of a compelling Chardonnay. Mind-blowing, actually.
