Chardonnay likes cool climates, and the Sonoma Coast is Sonoma County’s coolest. Bordering the county’s western and southern extremes, the effects of the chilly Pacific Ocean are strongest here. In the southern end, along San Pablo Bay, the summer heating of the low hills and coastal terraces draws cool ocean air through a natural wind gap near Petaluma, funneling cool air and fog through Petaluma and across our estate vineyard in Lakeville. This lowers yields and enhances concentration and acidity, leading to a classic Sonoma Coast style.
