Tasting Notes

This California Chardonnay displays fragrant aromas of pear, orange blossom and nectarine. On the palate, crisp flavours of apple and citrus mingle with riper stone fruit and subtle vanilla spice, tempered by the wine’s creamy mouthfeel. The finish is refreshing and bright with a characteristic, juicy acidity

Producer details

The winery and vineyards were originally owned and run by Cecil and Christine De Loach. In 2003, the family run Burgundian estate Jean-Claude Boisset purchased De Loach and brought the focus back to the estate's original high-quality winemaking philosophy, with specific emphasis on small lot winemaking, particularly of Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley. The winery's 7-hectare estate vineyard has been completely restored and converted to organic and biodynamic viticulture, a tradition upheld by many foremost Burgundian vineyards. The De Loach estate vineyards are certified organic by CCOF.

In the vineyard

The grapes for the Heritage Chardonnay were carefully chosen from cool, fog-influenced vineyards sustainably farmed along the California Coast. The team at De Loach practise sustainable viticulture and have a light touch in the winery to ensure the wine stays true to its origin

In the winery

The must was fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks to retain fresh fruit flavours in the wine. The winemakers then blended in a small amount of barrel-fermented Chardonnay in order to add further aromatic complexity and richness.

Food Recommendations

This Californian Chardonnay is robust enough to pair beautifully with Classic Roast Chicken.
