2020 | Marine Layer 'Charles Heintz' Chardonnay | Sonoma Coast Avinyo Caves while the palate denotes fullnessThe Chardonnay from this vineyard develops slowly as foggy, cool evenings slow down ripening significantly, especially at the end of the season. The soil is a classic sandy Goldridge loam. The resulting wines are prized for their layers of flavor and incredible depth, yet they also retain beautiful structural elements. Owner and grower, Charlie Heintzs family has farmed this land for over 100 years.
