2022 Vivier Chardonnay Sonoma Coast Chateau d issan Only 20% to 40% newWinemaker Notes Tasting a bit riper than the 2021 due to the heat during the 2022 harvest, but still an elegant, well balanced wine. This wine is golden in color, aromatic in lemon butter, vanilla bean and golden apples, with vivid acidity. Medium bodied.
