La Crema Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2024

La Crema Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2024 is a lush, refined, and beautifully balanced California white wine from La Crema’s flagship collection. Sourced from premier cool-climate vineyards across the Russian River Valley, this vintage showcases classic regional character, benefiting from fog-cooled mornings and warm afternoon sunshine. Barrel fermented and aged in French oak with gentle lees stirring, it displays a bright golden hue in the glass. The nose offers inviting aromas of fresh Meyer lemon, yellow apple, nectarine, and honeysuckle, intermingled with subtle accents of toasted brioche and delicate baking spice. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied with a rich, silky texture framed by crisp acidity, delivering flavors of citrus curd, stone fruit, and subtle vanilla through a clean, lingering finish.

Food Pairing: Pairs wonderfully with pan-seared sea scallops, roasted chicken with herbs, lobster tail, wild mushroom risotto, and creamy goat cheese appetizers.
