Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Yellow golden in color. Beautiful elegant aromas fill the glass. Full of ripe fruit of peach, ripe pear, and some papaya, wrapped in classic yeast notes with lovely integrated toasty oak. The mouth-feel is a powerful vibrant fresh Chardonnay with amazing concentration, seamless richness, and bold texture. There is a lot of fruit, fine deductive yeast notes, amazing rich tannins, and a powerful alcohol level. All brought to life with focused acidity and minerality. The finish is huge with a wonderful contrast between the oily unctuous richness and crisp vibrant acidity. This Chardonnay is energetic and will liven up any tasting or dinner party, and will age extremely well for decades to come. There is great depth and sophistication from start to the long finish and this wine is extremely well suited to be a great companion to food. This wine is also for the collector as it will have great longevity.

Best served after a couple of years of bottle aging. Serve around 55°F, this classic Chardonnay is the perfect match for rich fish dishes, crab cakes, truffle-mushroom risotto, creamy flavorful chicken, veal or pork, and of course an array of cheeses.

    Apricot, mango, lemon, cream, toast, vanilla and flint on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with a creamy, buttery texture and bright acidity. Flavorful and layered. Drink now or hold.

    COMMENTARY: The 2019 Wölffer Estate Perle Chardonnay highlights the potential of Long Island wines. TASTING NOTES: This wine is expansive in the aroma and on the palate showing creaminess, earth, tart apples, and a hint of minerality. Share it with a plate of steamed Dungeness crab in a savory sauce. (Tasted: March 30, 2022, San Francisco, CA)

Wolffer Estate Vineyard Wölffer Estate Vineyard Winery Image

For over 30 years, Wölffer Estate Vineyard has been known as one of the finest producers on the East Coast and a center for innovation and hospitality. They are committed to producing premium, distinctive wines, ciders and spirits through a dedication to quality, penchant for style and celebration of place.

Wölffer Estate was founded in 1988 by Christian Wölffer, a man with great creative vision and a huge passion for life. The estate today is owned and operated by his children, Marc and Joey Wölffer and Winemaker/Partner Roman Roth. The estate spans approximately 170 acres including the acclaimed 55 acre sustainably farmed vineyard located in Sagaponack, NY. They also own 28 acres on the North Fork of Long Island, 200 acres in Mendoza, Argentina and 2.5 acres in Mallorca, Spain. Finally, they partner with carefully selected growers on 338 acres on the North Fork of Long Island as well as 1,750 acres in Côtes de Provence, France.

The unique combination of Bridgehampton loam soil and breezes from the Atlantic Ocean, located 2.6 miles from the estate, provide maritime conditions perfect for achieving the balance of ripeness and acidity that has come to define Wölffer’s signature style: food friendly, elegant and built for longevity. Their dry ciders and gin have extended Wölffer quality into new categories, exemplifying their drive for innovation and excellence.

One of the most popular and versatile white wine grapes, Chardonnay offers a wide range of flavors and styles depending on where it is grown and how it is made. While it tends to flourish in most environments, Chardonnay from its Burgundian homeland produces some of the most remarkable and longest lived examples. California produces both oaky, buttery styles and leaner, European-inspired wines. Somm Secret—The Burgundian subregion of Chablis, while typically using older oak barrels, produces a bright style similar to the unoaked style. Anyone who doesn't like oaky Chardonnay would likely enjoy Chablis.
