Raeburn Chardonnay 2022
Raeburn Chardonnay 2022 hails from the heart of Sonoma County, California, showcasing a refined and classic expression of the variety. Made from 100% Chardonnay, this wine captures the essence of the region's unique terroir with a combination of fruit complexity and delicate oak influence. The grapes are hand-picked at dawn from several select vineyards, ensuring optimal ripeness and balance. Fermented and partially aged for nine months in a blend of French and Hungarian oak barrels, 75% undergoes malolactic fermentation, giving the wine a creamy texture that complements its bright fruit notes.
On the palate, Raeburn Chardonnay reveals an array of lively flavors, from crisp pear and Gravenstein apple to ripe nectarine, while a subtle layer of crème brûlée adds richness. The 2022 vintage benefits from Sonoma County’s stunning growing conditions, where mild summer temperatures and an early harvest contributed to smaller berry sizes, enhancing the wine's concentration and complexity. With a balanced acidity and an elegant finish, it embodies a harmonious fusion of fruit and oak.
With an alcohol content of 14.0%, Raeburn Chardonnay 2022 is an ideal pairing for a range of dishes. It pairs beautifully with roasted chicken, seafood, or a creamy pasta, offering a versatile and sophisticated wine experience. Its structured yet smooth profile makes it a standout choice for both casual gatherings and more formal occasions.
