WINEMAKER NOTES
2021 Marcassin Vineyard Estate Chardonnay – Distinctive Sonoma Coast Precision
The 2021 Marcassin Estate Chardonnay reflects the singular style that has placed Marcassin among California’s most coveted producers. Sourced exclusively from the estate’s windswept Sonoma Coast vineyard, this bottling emphasizes purity, concentration, and a level of textural depth rarely achieved with Chardonnay from the region.
Tasting Notes
The wine opens with aromas of lemon oil, white peach, hazelnut, and subtle floral notes. On the palate, it shows remarkable intensity balanced by vibrant acidity, offering layers of citrus, pear, and mineral-driven tension. The finish is long and sculpted, showcasing the hallmark richness and definition that characterize Marcassin’s estate wines.
Winemaking & Vineyard Details
Produced from low-yielding Chardonnay vines planted on the Sonoma Coast’s steep, maritime-influenced slopes, the 2021 vintage was fermented and aged in French oak barrels with extended lees contact. The cool climate and rocky soils contribute to its linear structure and lifted aromatics, while meticulous vineyard work ensures exceptional fruit quality.
Investment & Collectibility
Marcassin’s limited releases remain among the most sought-after California white wines. The 2021 Estate Chardonnay, produced in small quantities and known for its long aging curve, continues to attract strong interest from collectors seeking benchmark expressions of New World Chardonnay.
Vintage Insights & Accolades
The 2021 season delivered low yields but outstanding concentration due to cool coastal evenings and an even ripening pattern. Critics note its precision, drive, and enduring complexity.
