Chardonnay

White

The 2019 Rubia Ritchie Chardonnay comes from the revered Ritchie Vineyard in the Russian River AVA.  The grapes are handpicked and whole-cluster pressed.  The juice is fermented in 100% new French oak and kept on lees for 16 months with a light monthly batonnage.  The barrel fermentation reinforces the sweet texture from the Russian River, and the malolactic fermentation finishes to round the palate and polishes the acidity for a soft and creamy finish.  Aromas are very delicate, pear, white fruits, honeydew and subtle touches of lychee and aromatic herbs.  This is a fresh and rich chardonnay, balancing the expression of the site through its richness and the elegance of the Russian River through its freshness.
