Morlet Coup de Coeur Chardonnay 2012 is a Chardonnay from the Sonoma Coast, California, showcasing the craftsmanship of Luc Morlet. Sourced from carefully tended, cool-climate vineyards, this wine undergoes whole-cluster pressing, native yeast fermentation, and extended aging sur lie with regular bâtonnage. In 2012, the growing season was notable for its steadiness, contributing to ripened fruit with balanced acidity. The wine presents aromas of ripe pear, hazelnut, and lemon curd, leading to a textured palate with a long, mineral-driven finish. Morlet Family Vineyards, founded by Luc and Jodie Morlet, reflects a commitment to meticulous winemaking practices.

Vinous
- (a selection of the best barrels from the Sonoma Coast vineyard that produces Ma Douce): Deep, musky aromas and flavors of stone and soft citrus fruits, minerals and hazelnut. Rich, dense and seriously concentrated; conveys less of an acid impression than the Ma Princesse but this large-scaled, very rich wine has plenty of energy. Most impressive today on the sappy, building finish, which hints at limestone and bread dough. I would have picked this blind as Batard-Montrachet. Incidentally, Morlet suggests holding this two years for more vineyard character. A great showing.
