If you prefer your Chardonnays oak-kissed rather than oak-smothered, fruit forward rather than buttered like popcorn, then this should be your go-to wine. Taking the best of both worlds – beautiful, ripe fruit from the Russian River Valley and gently fermenting between steel tank and barrel, without malolactic fermentation, the resulting wine is one you can be proud to serve as California Chard.
Varietals: 100% Chardonnay
Nose: Tropical fruits, pineapple, ripe melons and apples
Palate: Minerals, ripe apples, pears and tropical fruit
Alcohol: 14.4%
Appellation: Sonoma, California

We Love This With
King Salmon is at its peak mid- to late-summer as the fish head to spawn in the cold rivers of Alaska. The Northwest Cooperative is a group of Alaskan fisherman who catch and flash freeze these beautiful fish as soon as they reach shore. The fat content and silkiness of the flesh makes for a perfect partner to the Fantesca Chardonnay, a fitting finale for a summer barbecue. Plank smoke the salmon, chill the wine and start making plans for winter break.
