Another Sonoma Coast releases is the 2016 Chardonnay Durell Vineyard. Quince, buttered citrus, white flowers, creamed corn, and some smoky minerality all define this layered, medium to full-bodied, ultra-pure Chardonnay that has acidity, concentration, and length. It's another gem and all these 2016s are a significant step up over the 2015s.
This wine holds a special place in our hearts hailing from the birthplace of the Three Sticks story, our first vineyard, laying the foundation for our incredible collection of vineyards. Our original Heritage vineyard, Durell, is highly regarded throughout Sonoma, characterized by its diverse microclimates and rocky volcanic soils.
Pale straw in color with a nose that leaps from the glass, reminiscent of lemon curd, green apple, and hints of jasmine flower. On the palate, the wine bursts with a bright and brilliant array of citrus, from makrut lime to Meyer lemon peel, interwoven with an ever-present stony minerality. Its fresh acidity is complemented by a subtle hint of oak and marzipan from barrel age.
Brilliant yet pale gold in color, the 2021 Hawk Hill Vineyard Chardonnay beams with energy and verve. Vibrant citrus aromas are balanced by an undertone of light clover honey and crushed wet stone. With precise acidity, the palate boasts refined flavors of rangpur lime, linden flower, and limestone. Its distinct minerality and playful salinity are harmonized by its unique texture and breadth, attained by the blend of French oak puncheon & concrete fermentation.
