The 2024 Whale Song Pacific Coast Chardonnay exhibits a complex profile with a balance of bright fruit notes (lemon, pear) and creamy, baked pastry aromas. Subtle saline and mineral undertones reflecting its Pacific Coast origins are also expected. Sanguis Collection founder Matthias Pippig's winemaking style aims for wines with a focused "velvet energy". The 2024 vintage, defined by a cool, long growing season with persistent winds, produced fruit with balanced ripeness and "laser beam acidity". The use of neutral oak and stainless steel, combined with partial malolactic fermentation, results in a rich but not heavy Chardonnay. This creates a texture described as "naked, with skin like oiled silk" and "smooth as glass".
