Platt Vineyard Estate Chardonnay 2023
Vintage Character
The 2023 season in Sonoma County began with record-breaking rainfall in the first weeks of the year. It turned into a cool year in which freshness comes to the fore, and producers have said Pinot Noir thrived. Cool coastal conditions suit the pure fruit and acidity that Chardonnay and Pinot Noir can show on the West Sonoma Coast. In 2023, the Estate Chardonnay from Platt Vineyard reflects that season. This Chardonnay is grown on the Platt Vineyard, which was planted in 2003 on the West Sonoma Coast.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
Ripe pear, yellow apple and citrus lead, with a hint of oak spice. It is dry and medium-to-full-bodied, with medium-high acidity. The palate is rounded yet fresh, with bright acidity from the cool coast and a long finish. It can develop honey and toasted nuts with a few years of age. Lobster, roast chicken and creamy pasta suit its weight. Serve at about 8 to 10 degrees Celsius, and avoid over-chilling so the aromas can open. Chardonnay is a flexible grape that reflects its site, from the steely edge of Chablis to the richness of the Côte de Beaune. It also suits a glass at the start of a meal, since the acidity wakes up the palate. A white with this profile shows best slightly cool rather than ice-cold, when its texture and mineral detail come through.
Winery Background
Platt Vineyard lies on the West Sonoma Coast and was planted in 2003 by the businessman Lewis E. Platt, and it is now fully mature. In 2022 the vineyard was acquired by AXA Millésimes, which also owns vineyards in France, Portugal, Hungary and Napa Valley. It grows Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, and Thomas Rivers Brown is listed as winemaker. This wine is an estate wine, made from fruit grown on that single vineyard. AXA Millésimes also owns Château Pichon Baron in Pauillac and Domaine de l'Arlot in Burgundy.
