Sonoma-Cutrer
Russian River Ranches Chardonnay
This Russian River Ranches Chardonnay from Sonoma-Cutrer is a beautiful, pale straw color with pale green tinges.

Scents of pear and apple are accentuated with notes of nougat, roasted nuts, oak spice, and a touch of citrus blossom.

WINE REGION:
Sonoma Coast
Stretching along California's raw and rugged northern shores—and reaching quite far inland—Sonoma Coast is the largest AVA in Sonoma County. The proximity to the ocean makes wines here very different from those from more central AVAs. Whether the vineyards are on high ridges above the fog line or warm, fog-shrouded valley floors, the marine soils, low temperatures and cool Pacific breezes slow the ripening of the grapes. The result? Highly structured, delicate wines with plenty of acidity. The main stars here are white peach-tinged Chardonnay and wild strawberry-flavored Pinot Noir, but you will also find some excellent cool-climate Syrah with notes of white pepper and cherry.

A zesty Chardonnay that is focused on the palate. Hints of apple, lime, and spice dance across your tastebuds. Nice acidity really rounds out the complex secondary flavors.
