Premium Au Contraire California Chardonnay White Wine – 750ml

Discover a Crisp & Balanced Chardonnay from California’s Premier Cool Climate Regions

Sourced exclusively from California’s celebrated Russian River Valley and its adjacent Green Valley bordering Sonoma Coast, this Chardonnay embodies the essence of cool-climate viticulture. The grapes thrive in an environment where chilly nights and persistent fog slow ripening, allowing flavors to develop gradually while retaining vibrant acidity—a hallmark of wines from these sought-after appellations.

Ideal for those who crave complexity without heaviness, this wine balances lush tropical fruit notes with bright citrus undertones thanks to its extended growing season. Unlike warmer regions that often produce overtly buttery or oaky styles, our approach highlights crispness and freshness by emphasizing natural acidity—a key differentiator that makes this Chardonnay perfect for pairing with delicate seafood dishes or enjoying as an aperitif on its own.

The Russian River Valley’s terroir provides structure and minerality, while Green Valley’s maritime influences add a silky texture and lifted aromatics. Together, they create a wine that’s both approachable now and capable of aging gracefully. Whether you’re seeking a refined alternative to bold whites or want to explore California’s cooler coastal offerings, this Chardonnay delivers exceptional value with its signature balance of richness and brightness.

Crafted for connoisseurs who appreciate wines shaped by their environment, this bottle stands out among Sonoma Coast selections for its harmonious blend of fruit-forward character and refreshing acidity—a testament to meticulous vineyard management in one of California’s most prized winegrowing zones.
