Matanzas Creek
Matanzas Creek produces Chardonnay from Sonoma County vineyards, focusing on varietal expression and terroir. The winery combines traditional techniques with modern winemaking to create Chardonnays with balanced fruit character and oak integration.
Their Chardonnay program emphasizes vineyard selection and careful barrel management to achieve complexity without overwhelming the fruit character. The wines undergo partial malolactic fermentation and sur lie aging to develop texture and depth. This approach results in Chardonnays that showcase California fruit with elegant oak influence and good aging potential.
