CHEV Chardonnay Russian River Valley 2021

Russian River Valley, one of the United States' top-ranked wine regions, is located at the heart of Sonoma County, California. It is one of California's coolest and foggiest AVAs creating a perfect climate for producing highly acclaimed wines from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

It is named after the Russian-American Company, whose explorers charted the river in the early 19th Century, eventually founding the Fort Ross colony a few miles north of the river mouth. The Russian River which gives the AVA its name is the second-largest river within the nine-county Greater San Francisco Bay Area.

Critical Acclaim

95 Wine Enthusiast

Elegant, well-balanced and silky in texture, this graceful wine eases baked apples, vanilla and macadamia nut across the palate, buoyed by light acidity, leading to a lingering finish. Fermented and aged in a combo of new and used concrete eggs, amphora and French oak.
