RATINGS

97James Suckling

Some flinty, reductive edges with a wealth of fine, lemon-pith and lime fragrance. Compact palate that has a scintillatingly focused, chiseled and vibrant fruit core... Powerful potential and piercing focus and length.

94Vinous / IWC

...brisk, focused and super-expressive, with plenty of the mineral and savory notes that make wines from this site so distinctive. Crushed flowers, apricot, dried pear and lemon confit develop in the glass, but above all else, the Thieriot is a wine of understatement, energy and total class.

92+ Jeb Dunnuck

...lots of salinity in its tangerine, citrus, and lemon-like aromas and flavors. With racy acidity, a vibrant, balanced profile, and a great finish...

PRODUCER

Littorai

Littorai was founded in 1993 by Heidi and Ted Lemon in western Sonoma County. Ted Lemon earned an enology degree from the Universite de Dijon and worked at prestigious wineries in Burgundy in the early 1980s. In California he was founding winemaker at Chateau Woltner on Howell Mountain. Littorai makes Pinot Noir from Anderson Valley, the Sonoma Coast and the Russian River. It also makes Chardonnays.

REGION

United States, California, Sonoma, Sonoma Coast

Sonoma Coast AVA runs from San Pablo Bay in the south to Mendocino County in the north. It includes 7,000 vineyard acres and earned AVA status in 1987. Its proximity to the Pacific Ocean means it gets double the rainfall of nearby inland appellations and the ocean gives the appellation a relatively cool climate. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir can thrive in these conditions, and there are numerous producers making critically acclaimed Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

TYPE

White Wine, Chardonnay

This white variety originated in Burgundy, but is now grown around the world. Its flexibility to thrive in many regions translates to wide flavor profile in the market. Chardonnay is commonly used in making Champagne and sparkling wines.
