2006 Chardonnay
View Label
Appellation: Russian River Valley
Winemaker: Rick
Peters Vineyard is located on the western edge of Russian River Valley and because of its cool setting is ideal for growing some of the best Burgundian varietals in California. The 2006 Peters Chardonnay is feminine and delicate, with perfumes of gala apple, lemon custard, honey and brioche. The wine glides across the palate with a light silkiness and maintains its vibrant acidity on the finish. A fantastic wine to pair with flash seared ahi tuna encrusted with toasted hazelnuts and lightly to...

2007 Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay
View Label
Appellation: Russian River Valley
Winemaker: Greg Bjornstad
Tasting Notes: The Ritchie Vineyard consistently produces distinctive Chardonnays, known for their richness and tropical fruit flavors. Bjornstad’s representation expresses a somewhat leaner version, consistent with the characteristics of the 2006 vintage. The complex aromas reveal sweet citrus notes of Mandarin orange and Meyer lemon meringue. Creamy vanillas and butterscotch layer nicely with the fruit and toasty oak notes. Flavors follow aromas onto the palate with a beautiful balance ...

2006 Russian River Valley Chardonnay
View Label
Appellation: Russian River Valley
When the cork is pulled this proves a wine of vivid contrasts, with intensity that is almost aggressive. Aromas of toasted coconut, vanilla wafer, lemon curd, roasted grain, bees wax and suggestions of tarte tatin and peach upside-down cake seem to tumble forth. It settles down quickly on the palate, revealing pretty green apple and pear fruit integrated nicely with layers of creamy vanilla, nutmeggy custard and some firming citric and mineral notes. Airing shows it less powerful than its Sonoma...

Gann Family Cellars

(Winery Info & All Wines)
2006 Chardonnay
Appellation: Russian River Valley
An incredibly bright acidity gives the palate a powerful burst of concentrated pineapple, green apple and lemon zest fruit that shimmers gently away with hints of toast, spice and mineral. This is a modern day Chardonnay with a classic European backbone - extraordinary complexity, keen acidity, and perfectly ripe fruit exemplifying all that is Russian River.

2006 Chardonnay, Estate ~ Russian River Valley
Appellation: Russian River Valley
Chardonnay
Winemaker: Jon Phillips
Fermented and sur lees aged in two year old French oak barrels for 11 months. The wine and it’s sediment was stirred, employing a French technique called “batonage” for 9 of the 11 months that the wine was being cellared - Unfiltered and unfined, this wine is complex, with a rich mouth feel and a perfect balance of acid and fruit for which the Russian River Valley is renowned. Burgundian in style with honeysuckle on the nose followed by some butter, and an abundance of apples plus a tast...

2007 Mueller Chardonnay, "LB", Russian River Valley
Appellation: Russian River Valley
Winemaker: Robert Mueller
Sparkling medium yellow/gold in color, this wine explodes with bright, clear tropical fruit aromas. Smokey perfumed pear and apple aromas join the party, accompanied by yeast, toast and butter scents. Full in body and generous in flavor, this wine glides softly with beautifully balanced natural acidity. Mango, pineapple, pear and apple flavors dance harmoniously on the palette in this enormously enjoyable wine. The finish; long and crisp with toasty oak and butterscotch nuances. Enjoyable t...

2008 Selby Chardonnay

My favorite white wine is Chardonnay. I feel fortunate to make our Chardonnay with grapes from the best vineyards in Russian River Valley - just one of the reasons it is award-winning. If you love supple, ripe, elegant Chardonnay imbued with subtle notes of toasty oak, this one is outstanding.

2008 Dave Selby Reserve Chardonnay
Appellation: Russian River Valley
Winemaker: Susie Selby
Dave Selby Reserve Chardonnay is only produced when everything about the vintage and the vineyard is flawless. The grapes were picked at ideal levels of acidity and flavor, then the free run juice was put into our finest new French barrels. Gentle stirring for 15 months and hand bottling completed the process.
