Radio Coteau Savoy Chardonnay

Radio Coteau Savoy Chardonnay

$124.99

In 2002, Eric Sussman established Radio-Coteau, focusing on the north coast vineyards of western Sonoma County and Anderson Valley. With their benchland locations, well-drained soils, exposure to capricious marine air and fog, these sites host grapes naturally suited to their surrounding elements. This natural selection afforded Eric an opportunity to refine his Old World experiences while working with New World grapes. For nearly two decades, he and his winegrowing team have strived to balance nature’s expression with a delicate, but disciplined human touch in these handcrafted wines. The winery has been Demeter Certified Biodynamic® since 2008, a reflection of their commitment to crafting wines of origin utilizing low-intervention winemaking practices.

Burgundy has proven that quality Chardonnay and Pinot Noir can be grown in the same soil, Corton hill being the classic example. Wines from this special place inspired our decision to make Chardonnay from the organically farmed Savoy Vineyard, whose soil and climate are also ideal for both Burgundian varietals. The 2022 Savoy Chardonnay is comprised of 70% citrus-driven Wente and 30% rich, fruit-focused Prosser clones. After a gentle whole cluster press, it was aged for 16 months, first in a mix of barrel and puncheon with 15% new tight-grained French oak, followed by three months in stainless steel prior to bottling.
