2024 Sonoma-Cutrer Les Pierres Chardonnay

Each vintage of Les Pierres reflects our Grand Cru approach. Hand-harvested grapes are kept cool to preserve fresh flavors and acidity. After hand-sorting, they are whole-cluster pressed to avoid bitter tannins. The free-run juice naturally settles for 24 hours, then is racked and yeasted before fermenting in French oak barrels. The wine is barrel-fermented on the lees in one-year-old oak for five months, then blended and aged in three-year-old oak.
