2023 Russian River Valley Chardonnay
Chardonnay has been at the heart of Montelena’s story since the beginning, shaped by the character of both Napa and Sonoma. Our inaugural 1972 vintage and the iconic 1973 Chardonnay that triumphed at the Judgment of Paris were both crafted from a blend of Napa and Sonoma fruit. Additionally, in our early years, Montelena produced two distinct Chardonnays, one from Napa Valley, the other from Sonoma, each a reflection of the unique sense of place from both valleys. Decades later, we continue this tradition with our 2023 Russian River Valley Chardonnay.
Following our inaugural 2022 Sonoma County release that was offered by invitation, our 2023 vintage is sourced exclusively from Russian River Valley. This limited-release Chardonnay marks a departure from our signature Napa Valley Chardonnay, featuring a profile that is both rich and complex. At only 250 cases produced, members may secure this wine to enjoy upon release or cellar for additional aging.
