Weekly Sommelier Recommendation Review

Chardonnay • Sonoma Coast, California

Flowers Sonoma Coast Chardonnay

93 Points Bottle Price: $45

"A pure expression of coastal Chardonnay."

This is Chardonnay for people who love the ocean. Flowers is known for their high-elevation, "extreme" Sonoma Coast vineyards, and this wine reflects that with incredible vibrance and a distinct flinty minerality. It avoids the heavy "butter-bomb" cliché, opting instead for bright citrus zest, white peach, and a touch of toasted brioche. It’s elegant, crisp, and has a lingering saline finish that makes it a dream pairing for fresh seafood or roast chicken.
