    Peaks & Tides Sonoma Coast Chardonnay - Agreeable

    By: Jon Thorsen Published: August 18, 2021 Last Updated: January 23, 2023

    A pleasing, lightly oaked Chardonnay from Aldi, the Peaks & Tides Sonoma Coast Chardonnay.

    Peaks & Tides Sonoma Coast Chardonnay - Agreeable

    Chardonnay from the Sonoma Coast, Sonoma County, California.

    This wine is available exclusively at Aldi and sells for $9.99.

    From the bottle:

    Sonoma County is a geographic symphony of mountains, hills and coastline. A sub-appellation within Sonoma County, the Sonoma Coast along the Pacific ocean is known for its cool climate. The Peaks & Tides found along the coast create a unique microclimate perfectly suited to growing Chardonnay grapes.

    Our full-bodied, fruit forward Sonoma Coast Chardonnay has layers of flavor, highlighted by pear, green apple, and a hint of vanilla. This Chardonnay has a rich, supple mouthfeel and captures the signature characteristics of the Sonoma Coast.

    This wine pairs wonderfully with grilled salmon or chicken salad and is best served chilled.

    Vinted & Bottled by Peaks & Tides
    13.9% Alcohol

    The 2019 Peaks & Tides Sonoma Coast Chardonnay starts things off with a pleasing pear aroma of spicy baked apple, citrus and some buttered corn notes.

    The wine tastes pretty similar to the nose but is a bit more tart in the mouth. You'll also find a smooth mouthfeel and a bit more butter along with a little vanilla.

    It ends dry, crisp and with good length. While it's not over the top buttery I'd say this is definitely a wine for the oaked chardonnay crowd.
