Rodney Strong, Chalk Hill – Sonoma County (California) Chardonnay 2022 ($30)

Feb 26, 2025

By Rich Cook
Wine label

The trend toward lively acidity in Chardonnay continues, and I’m certainly a fan of the shift. This is all about brightness and freshness, and the wine should hold for a couple of years in that state before it starts to mellow. This is a tropical treat that will please a wide range of tasters, and a fine solo glass or seafood accompaniment.
