Lioco Chardonnay Sonoma County 2023

LIOCO has been at the forefront of the 'New California' wine movement for the past 15 years. The company creates minimalist bottles that show a serious sense of place. Owners Matt and Sara Licklider work with a variety of dry-farmed organic vineyards and emphasize the cultivation of old vines. This release comes from a drought-year vintage famous for tiny yields and super-concentrated grapes. From pristine vineyards in Russian River Valley and Alexander Valley. We love the sweet citrus and fresh herbal profile on this one — we're calling dibs for veggie tacos and buttery seafood.
