The 2022 Purlieu Platt Vineyard Chardonnay is a wine of exceptional single-vineyard focus, cool-climate California elegance, and the kind of tensile, mineral-driven Chardonnay character that Purlieu — a winery best known for its extraordinary single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignons — crafts with the same precision and terroir-obsessed philosophy that defines every wine in their portfolio. The Platt Vineyard, with its carefully chosen site characteristics, produces Chardonnay of outstanding natural balance: a combination of cool growing conditions, well-drained soils, and the meticulous farming that Purlieu demands from all its vineyard sources creates fruit of exceptional aromatic purity and the kind of natural freshness and acidity that forms the backbone of all truly great California Chardonnay. The 2022 vintage delivered Platt Vineyard Chardonnay of beautiful quality: aromas of white peach, green apple, lemon verbena, toasted hazelnut, a light cream note, and a clean mineral thread of elegant precision lead to a medium-to-full bodied palate of excellent natural acidity, lovely tension, and a long, focused, mineral-driven finish of genuine single-vineyard character and Purlieu winemaking distinction.
