Ramey Wine Cellars Platt Vineyard Chardonnay 2013

Andrew S

This was really good. Had plenty of fruit as you’d expect, but kept it nicely in balance. Citrus and green apple, white pepper. Nice finish with plenty of body, but not overdone, almost racy.

Sipping Fine Wine

Following winemaking posts at Rudd, Dominus, Chalk Hill and Matanzas Creek, David Ramey and his wife, Carla began their own label in 1996. Platt is Ramey’s coolest vineyard. Aromas of ripe stone fruits with citrus notes and subtle spice. On the palate tons of fruit just starting to emerge with apple and lemon flavors, well balanced lingering finish ending with a slight mineral tang. Drink now and over next few years.

Green apple, citrus, nice acidity and a kiss of cream and salinity.

Michael Chelus

Tart apple, lemon, honey, buttery oak, slate and cedar. Good acidity and balance.

Ten year old Ramey single vineyard Chard. Pretty crisp beginning with pear and red apple yet it has a smokey nuance in the mid pallet and a buttery vanilla finish. Very interesting and enjoyed it very much.

2013 in February 2021. Still fresh and has added weight. A big hit and has lots of life ahead yet. Really, I’d say it’s just hitting a prime drinking window.

This is delicious Chardonnay-nay

Lime, slate, butter and oak. Chablisienne style from Sonoma Coast. Reminiscent of HDV.

Sara Halpern

Very nice

Tasting blind I would have called this young Montrachet. Really great acid.
