David Ramey, hailed as \"Professor Chardonnay\" by Wine Spectator, pioneered whole-cluster pressing, sur lies aging, malolactic fermentation, and native yeast fermentations in California. Woolsey Road is Ramey's most personal vineyard: planted by the Martinelli family at Ramey's invitation, using Old Wente cuttings sourced directly from Hyde Vineyard, and farmed by the third and fourth generations of the Martinelli family. The result is a laser-focused Chardonnay of extraordinary precision. James Suckling awarded the 2023 vintage 96 points; Wine Advocate 95.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most compelling single-vineyard Chardonnays in Sonoma.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe nose is pretty and perfumed: peach, lime custard, lemongrass, green apple, golden apple, Bosc pear, pie crust, and roasted almond. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, concentrated, and sapid — rich but lively, with baking spices and youthfully flinty flavors framed by racy, citrus-driven acidity that adds real tension. The texture is seamless and long, building toward a very extended, precise finish. Drink now or hold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\u003cem\u003eJames Suckling 96 — \"Very pretty, fruity... then more concentrated, structured and tense on the palate.
