La Brume

Dry Creek Valley Chardonnay

Michel-Schlumberger La Brume is an exceptional Chardonnay that hails from the renowned Dry Creek Valley, a region celebrated for its ideal climate that nurtures exquisite grape growing. This white wine showcases a beautifully balanced profile, exuding a medium-bodied richness that captures the essence of ripe stone fruits and citrus notes. With lively acidity that brings a refreshing brightness to the palate, it is both mouthwatering and invigorating. The fruit intensity is prominent, offering flavors that are both vibrant and layered, while the oak aging contributes subtle nuances of vanilla and toasted almond. As a delightful dry wine, it is perfect for pairing with seafood, creamy pasta dishes, or enjoyed on its own for a sophisticated sipping experience. La Brume stands out not only for its quality but also for its ability to express the unique terroir of Dry Creek Valley.

Region:


Dry Creek Valley

Dry Creek Valley AVA is located around 70 miles north of San Francisco, in the heart of Sonoma County. This small region may only be two miles wide, but it's a treasure trove of diversity thanks to its varied landscape and complex geological history. Flanked by rivers and lakes, the region's vineyards stretch from sun-soaked hillsides to cool valley floors. Its deep, gravelly soils are the perfect home for California's favorite red grape varieties, particularly Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, while Sauvignon Blanc thrives in cooler sites.
