Winemaker Notes

Siduri is thrilled to finally be releasing a wine that is the exact style of Chardonnay that we love to enjoy ourselves offering a generous burst of Meyer Lemon, backed by pineapple with hints of brioche and vanilla, all interwoven on a long, succulent finish driven by vibrant acidity.

The 2023 wines are fresh, vibrant, and packed with flavor – the signature of each individual site shining brightly.

Vineyard Notes

The Cougar Ridge Vineyard, located on Stonestreet’s rugged and wild Alexander Mountain Estate, was selected as the primary source of our Sonoma County Chardonnay due to its incredible range of soils, elevations, and aspects. The vines snake their way around terraced blocks, rising 650 feet above the valley below. The variability of flavors and maturity around these terraced blocks provide a broad spectrum of bright flavors and a backbone of minerality that shines through the bright finish. With just a splash of the floral 809 clone from Matanzas Creek Vineyard in Bennett Valley, the Sonoma County Chardonnay offers plenty of bright, juicy fruit with old-world finesse and minerality. Our team is thrilled to be able to produce a Chardonnay from these gorgeous vineyards in our own backyard.
