Description
The Russian River Valley is one of the most recognized regions in the world for Chardonnay. A diversity in soil types, sharp temperature shifts and heavy fog are all elements encouraging vineyards to produce complex grapes. Luckily for you, La Crema has many vineyards here and they picked their favorite to craft this California classic. Textured, well-balanced and rich, this white wine has aromas and flavors of nectarine, pineapple blossoms, Meyer lemon and crème brûlée.
Aromas of white peach, lemon zest, and green pear, are followed by subtle hints of toasted hazelnut and spices. Flavors of apple, lemon curd, and pineapple are throughout the palate, while rich ­flavors of vanilla custard start to shine through. A vibrant and concentrated balance of acidity drives a lingering finish.

Ideal with creamy, rich foods like risotto primavera and brown butter scallops, especially those with a dash of lemon zest and/or Pecorino. Believe it or not, this wine can actually pair with asparagus!
