The story behind it
Founded in 1979 as La Crema Viñera, this pioneering winery was established to capture the essence of California's finest cool-climate coastal appellations. Under the guidance of the Jackson family, La Crema has spent decades perfecting artisanal, small-batch winemaking techniques that showcase the unique terroir of the region.
Deep in the heart of Sonoma County, the Russian River Valley is celebrated for its signature morning fog and cool maritime breezes. This distinct microclimate allows Chardonnay grapes to ripen slowly, developing intense flavor complexity and maintaining a brilliant natural acidity.
