Family‑driven by legendary winemaker Paul Hobbs, this Russian River Valley Chardonnay showcases the cool‑climate nuance and coastal influence that define one of California’s premier white wine regions. Pale straw in the glass, it opens with layers of Asian pear, Meyer lemon zest, white florals and gentle gardenia notes, leading to a vibrant and energetic palate of apricot, nectarine, citrus blossom, baking spice and hints of brioche and wet stone minerality—reflecting the bright acidity and balance that the fog‑cooled vineyards deliver. Graceful yet richly textured, it pairs beautifully with butter‑poached lobster, grilled scallops with lemon beurre blanc, herb‑roasted chicken, or creamy risotto with wild mushrooms, offering both elegance and depth for a refined tasting experience.
