MacRostie Nightwing Vineyard Chardonnay 2021 | Award-Winning Napa Valley White Wine

MacRostie 2021 Chardonnay: A Sonoma Coast Masterpiece

Savor the essence of California’s premium wine country with MacRostie’s 2021 Chardonnay from the Petaluma Gap AVA—a region renowned for its maritime influence and crisp fruit profiles. Crafted with meticulous care by a legacy winemaker team, this golden-hued gem balances opulent tropical flavors with electrifying acidity, making it a standout in Sonoma Coast Chardonnays.

Tasting Experience:
This wine captivates from first pour: vibrant citrus zest (yuzu, lemon blossom) dances on the nose alongside gardenia florals and hints of sweet spice. On the palate, lush layers of kiwi, pineapple, and guava give way to a velvety texture that’s both rich and refreshing. The finish is framed by lip-smacking acidity—a hallmark of Petaluma Gap terroir—that lingers long after each sip. Decanter (93 points), Wine Enthusiast (93 points), and Wine Spectator (92 points) acclaim this as a benchmark for modern California Chardonnay.

Why It Stands Out:
– Terroir-Driven Complexity: Grown in Sonoma County’s cooling fog belt, this wine showcasesPetroloma Gap’s unique ability to coax elegance from Chardonnay grapes.
– Perfect Balance: Effortlessly combines bold tropical character with refined minerality—ideal for pairing with seafood or buttery pastries.
– Cellar Potential: Enjoy now through 2032; uncork for holiday gatherings or as a thoughtful gift for Chardonnay enthusiasts seeking something extraordinary.

Crafted for Connoisseurs:
Winemaker notes reveal meticulous attention to detail: hand-harvested grapes fermented in French oak barrels (35% new) to enhance complexity without overpowering fruitiness. At 14.5% alcohol, it strikes a harmonious balance between power and grace—perfect for both casual sipping and formal dining settings.
