David Kohler Canopy Sonoma Chardonnay 2017
About the wine
Barrel-aged, buttery and classic Chardonnay - from a former Wine Advisor!
One of your first Wine Advisors got the chance to make the dreamy Sonoma Chardonnay he’s always wanted to make – all thanks to your votes and support! And he’s back with a NEW vintage that’s luxuriously rich, smooth, and full of ripe fruit.
David worked with Head Winemaker Franc Dusak to harvest the crème de la crème Chardonnay from the cool valleys of Sonoma, then fermented the wine and aged it in oak – which developed these vibrant fruity flavors and that bright and oh-so-supple creaminess.
Thanks to all you’ve done, Dave’s continued making a dream wine that reflects the sun-laden valley he calls home. Pop open a bottle of this refreshing Chard with a fresh cheese plate or scallops sauteed in butter, and give yourself a pat on the back for supporting your friend-turned-winemaker!
Best before
2018-2023 would be a perfect range.
Serving advice
Open it now and often! Save a few bottles for down the road.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - David Kohler
- David Kohler is a Naked original. He joined our ranks back in 2012 and became the company's first Wine Advisor - he's the in-house expert on every Angel-funded wine you fund. (He's tasted through THOUSANDS of bottles!)
- We all knew David loved DRINKING wine. We just didn't know about his secret ambition to make it!
- We polled Angels to see if you wanted to make this beloved Wine Advisor your very own winemaker… and you’re incredibly smart, so you did! Thanks to you, David got to trade in a desk and a phone for a life at the winery... and he's not looking back.
