Le Boncie "Le Trame" Toscana 2022

Originally

The Mer Soleil Reserve Chardonnay takes the same coastal fruit and deepens the conversation

is exactly what happened to my first bottle

circulating solely among the owners’ friends and family

The south-facing Sisters Vineyard in the Dundee Hills

with a hint of earthiness perhaps derived from the clays of volcanic origin in which the vines grow

understated but thoughtful

“we don’t want to say we’re Burgundian” and by some of the flavors they are getting

there are always more treasures to discover — bottles of beautifully crafted Pinot Noir

The finish is brisk and mineral

fine-grained tannins and bright acidity giving the wine its spine

Needless to say
