Rutherford Ranch Chardonnay is a classic Californian white wine, known for its rich and full character. The wine is mainly made from grapes from Napa Valley, where the warm climate and cool nights promote perfect ripening of the Chardonnay grapes. This wine is partly matured in oak barrels, which provides a nice balance between freshness and creamy, buttery notes.
In the glass, the Rutherford Ranch Chardonnay offers a bouquet of ripe apple, pear and tropical fruit, with subtle hints of vanilla and toast from the oak maturation. In the mouth, the wine is full, with a creamy texture and a refreshing acidity that balances the fruity character. The long, elegant finish makes this wine particularly pleasant.
Rutherford Ranch Chardonnay is versatile and can be paired well with dishes such as grilled fish, poultry in creamy sauces, or seafood pastas. The creamy texture of the wine also goes well with rich dishes such as risotto or baked scallops. For vegetarians, a pairing with roasted vegetables or soft cheeses such as brie is an excellent choice.
