Red Car Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay 2015
SONOMA COAST
100% CHARDONNAY
Few new world Chardonnay sites rival the prestige of the famed Ritchie Vineyard. These true old Wente clone vines are among the oldest Chardonnay growing in all of Sonoma County and after four years of working with this magnificent site, we now fully understand how to bring the Red Car voice to these celebrated old vines.
In 2015, we continued to harness the potential of the vineyard by creating a Chardonnay with perfume, texture, minerality, and nuance. The mouthfeel and body of this wine is opulent yet racy and has received high accolades throughout the years from wine critics and Red Car fans alike.
This wine can certainly be enjoyed at a young bottle age but the rewards for cellaring the 2015 Red Car Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay will be significant.

Reviews:
Wine Advocate – “The 2015 Red Car Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay has a gregarious nose of ripe pineapple, passion fruit and grapefruit with suggestions of baker’s yeast and nutmeg. Medium-bodied and elegantly fruited in the mouth, it has a wonderful intensity of tropical and citrus flavors with a lively line of acid and a long, mineral-laced finish.” (93 Pts)
Wine Enthusiast – “Tangy oranges and tangerines accent sculpted acidity in this textured, gritty white from the always impressive vineyard site. With just a touch of reduction, it has understated elegance and a light-bodied style.” (91 Pts)
