Elegant Russian River Chardonnay with creamy poached pear notes

This Russian River Valley Chardonnay opens with inviting aromas of baked golden apple, lemon curd, and toasted brioche. On the palate, a creamy texture is beautifully balanced by vibrant acidity, leading to a long finish layered with notes of poached pear and light baking spices.

The story behind it

The maker

Davis Bynum founded his namesake winery in 1965, becoming the first winemaker to release a single-vineyard Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley. Today, the winery continues his legacy under winemaker Greg Morthole, focusing on estate-grown, terroir-driven expressions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

How it is made

Davis Bynum was a pioneer of single-vineyard winemaking, crafting iconic cool-climate wines in the heart of Sonoma County. The grapes for this Chardonnay are sourced from the historic River West Vineyard, nestled along the Russian River where foggy mornings yield exceptional acidity.
