Treat yourself to one of the best buys in California Chardonnay with this exceptional Chardonnay from the Russian River Valley of Sonoma. This region is famous for its Chardonnay for good reason. The climate and soils allow the wines to achieve depth and dimension, while retaining elegance and brightness. The 1998 De Loach Russian River Chardonnay is creamy on the palate but doesn't weigh heavy. Fresh apple, baked pear and a dash of oak combine for a rich and satisfying Chardonnay. This is a fun, food friendly wine that is sure to please.

DeLoach Vineyards has been a pioneering producer of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Zinfandel in Sonoma’s Russian River Valley since 1975. DeLoach seeks to produce exceptional wines that spotlight the singular personality of the Russian River Valley, with its rare and bountiful convergence of the sea, the soil and the stars. The Boisset family of Burgundy has stewarded winegrowing and winemaking at DeLoach since 2003, bringing the techniques and approaches of Burgundy to winemaking in the Russian River Valley, which they believed to be California’s most expressive terroir for cultivating Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Under Boisset, DeLoach has grown its small-lot vineyard designate wine program, become a certified organic and Biodynamic estate vineyard, and implemented traditional Burgundian winemaking techniques such as open-top wood fermentors, native yeast fermentations, and hand punch-downs. Wine & Spirits magazine has named DeLoach Vineyards a Top 100 Winery twelve times.
