Zio Tony Ranch

2008 Russian River Valley Chardonnay

The Patz & Hall Zio Tony Ranch 2008 Chardonnay is a stunning representation of California's Russian River Valley, known for producing some of the most exquisite Chardonnays in the world. This full-bodied white wine showcases a rich and creamy texture complemented by bright acidity, making it both refreshing and luxurious. The wine presents captivating fruit intensity with notes of ripe pear, apple, and a hint of citrus that dances gracefully on the palate. Its balanced profile features subtle oak influence that enhances the overall experience without overpowering the vibrant fruit. With a desirable dryness, this Chardonnay can be perfectly paired with seafood dishes and creamy pastas, making it an excellent choice for any occasion.

Sonoma County
Sonoma County

Many of California's world-class wines come from Sonoma County, separated from Napa by the Mayacamas Mountains. Three times the size of Napa, Sonoma is an incredibly diverse region. Cool coastal zones, fog-cloaked hillsides, sheltered valleys and craggy exposed peaks give Sonoma a vast array of terroirs and microclimates. Its many sub-regions produce a broad range of styles: from the bold Cabernets of Alexander Valley to the fragrant Pinots of Sonoma Coast and the sublime Chardonnays of Chalk Hill.
