The Russian River appellation is famous for it’s cool foggy mornings and relatively moderate heat during the summer months. It’s no wonder that some of the best Chardonnay’s in the world hail from this region. This Chard combines the best use of French Oak with delicate mineral and sweet apple flavors. Any sauce or dish made with butter and white sauce would be delicious.

Winemaker Notes:

The 2005 Russian River Chardonnay begins with abundant aromas of peach, apricot, pear, and toasted almonds. More complex aromas of spice and hazelnut are revealed after several minutes in the glass. On the palate, crisp acidity from our cool weather vineyards strike an excellent balance with subtle oak nuances. The finish is long and lingering with additional vanilla and cream elements that add even more finesse and elegance to this beautiful wine.
