Region: Sonoma County, California
Grapes: Chardonnay
Body: Medium
Notes: Balanced and bright. D'Anjou pear, honeysuckle, lemon zest, Meyer lemon, hazelnut. Partial malo gives body without butterball overkill. Restaurant-list darling.
Pairing: Seared halibut, roasted chicken, white pizza, lobster, soft-ripened cheeses.
Additional Info: The Wonderland Project was founded in 2010 by wine broker and former sommelier Matt Ahern, who partners with some of Sonoma's top growers for sustainably farmed, site-driven fruit. The White Queen Chardonnay is whole-cluster pressed, fermented with wild yeasts, and aged with two-thirds in French oak (approximately 30% new) and one-third in stainless steel. Partial malolactic fermentation adds depth without heaviness. Matured on lees for added complexity. A fixture on wine lists at many of the country's best restaurants, delivering serious Sonoma quality at a surprisingly accessible price.

What is natural wine?
Natural wine is wine made with minimal intervention from the winemaker, using organically or biodynamically grown grapes and without the addition of chemicals or additives such as sulfites. The result is a wine that is unique, expressive, and often has a more complex and nuanced flavor profile than conventional wines. Natural wine is also often associated with sustainable and ethical farming practices, making it a popular choice for those interested in environmentally friendly and socially responsible products.
