2019 Cotiere Chardonnay, La Rinconada Vineyard
"The 2019 Chardonnay La Rinconada Vineyard is soft and open-knit, all of which give it quite a bit of immediacy. Lemon confit, pineapple, mint and a kiss of new French oak work well here. Floral notes develop later, adding lift. (Drink between 2022-2029)." -Antonio Galloni, 93VM
Côtière's success stems from working exact rows, blocks and clones within the vineyards they source from, so that small adjustments in farming techniques during the season can ensure the best fruit it sourced. "We are very fortunate to be involved with some of the best vineyards on the central coast, which includes Talley Rincon Vineyard, Presqu’ile, Hilliard Bruce, La Encantada, Murmur Vineyard as well as La Rinconada and Sanford and Benedict for all our Burgundy varietals. Working with Santa Rita Hills Pinot Noir along side Santa Maria Valley is incredibly rewarding due to their unique expressions. Our primary goal is to capture that unique expression in every bottle made.
