Vineyard: Bohan Vineyard, nestled on a remote Sonoma Coast ridge at 1,300-1,500 feet elevation and a mere 3 miles from the Pacific Ocean, is a pristine gem. Chardonnay vines, planted in 1972, thrive in Goldridge loam soil – eroded volcanic material combined with sandstone and alluvial deposits. Owned by George and Nikki Bohan, this 1,100-acre estate holds a storied history spanning four generations. The sustainably farmed fruit, imbued with their warmth and carefree spirit, and balanced by the temperate coastal climate, yields wines of tension and depth. Tasting Notes: "Pale gold in the glass, this creamy, barrel-fermented Chard shows aromas of Anjou pear, cinnamon and buttered popcorn on the nose. The palate is broad and creamy, with some serious apple-pie energy. Serve this with richly presented scallops and have some fun. 90 points." — Tom Capo, Wine Enthusiast
