Decoy Chardonnay "Sonoma Coast"

Refined elegance from the edge of the Pacific.
The Decoy Limited Chardonnay is a graceful expression of California’s cool-climate coast — a wine that captures the pure beauty of Sonoma’s marine influence and the meticulous craftsmanship of the Duckhorn family. Grown along the rugged Sonoma Coast, where ocean breezes and morning fog temper the sun, this Chardonnay achieves a rare balance of richness and freshness, elegance and depth.

Here, the vines thrive in rocky, windswept soils that yield small, concentrated berries bursting with flavour. The winemaking is delicate and deliberate — fermentation in French oak barrels adds texture and subtle spice, while partial malolactic fermentation preserves a lively, coastal vibrancy. The result is a Chardonnay that’s layered yet lifted, with notes of golden apple, lemon curd, and a whisper of vanilla, all carried by a clean, mineral finish.

It’s a wine that feels sophisticated without effort — luxurious but bright and alive. For wine lovers in Ireland, Decoy Limited Chardonnay is a taste of the California coast at its finest: elegant, expressive, and beautifully balanced. Perfect for those moments when you want something truly special in the glass.

Why we love it:
This Chardonnay delivers a masterclass in restraint and refinement. It offers all the creamy texture and gentle oak you’d expect from a top-tier Californian white, yet never loses its freshness. We love its precision, its purity, and how beautifully it complements both elegant seafood dishes and simple comfort food alike. A luxurious wine that feels quietly confident.
