Ramey Rochioli Vineyard Russian River Chardonnay is a layered and elegant Chardonnay from Sonoma's iconic Rochioli Vineyard. Bursting with aromas of white flowers, Asian pear, and green apple, it offers a minerally, balanced palate with hints of butter and vanilla bean. The long, refined finish and bright acidity make it a superb match for seafood, poultry, and creamy dishes, while its structure allows for cellaring to develop additional complexity.

Description

James Suckling Review
Rated 97
Layered, elegant, vivid and mineral-driven, this full-bodied wine paints a distinct picture of one of Sonoma County's oldest, most iconic chardonnay vineyards. Stone, kiwi and crisp apple notes fill the aromas, while light accents of butter and vanilla bean highlight the vibrant green apple and lime flavors. It expands on the palate and echoes for minutes in the finish. This wine is known to age well, so drink or hold.

How To Serve

Temperature Matters: Serve whiskey and bourbon at room temperature, vodka chilled, and tequila slightly cool to preserve aroma and balance.
Choose the Right Glass: Use a rocks glass for whiskey, a flute or coupe for sparkling spirits, and a tulip or snifter for aged liquors.
Don’t Rush the Pour: Allow spirits to breathe for a few moments before tasting — it softens alcohol notes and opens complex flavors.
Savor with Intention: Sip slowly, appreciate aroma before taste, and pair thoughtfully with food or fine company.
