We still have some of our Clone 4 and Robert Young Chardonnay grapes on 110R rootstock available. Our Chardonnay fruit, grown on a high plateau along the Russian River, has the renown distinctive Russian River Valley mix of citrus, pear and pineapple flavors along with the minerality deposited from the river. It has been tested by ETS and found to be under the critical level for Guaiacol at 0.5 microgram . /The 2023 LaFollete Russian River Valley Chardonnay received a score of 96 points and a DOUBLE GOLD medal at this year’s PD North Coast judging and the 2023 Gary Farrell RRV Chardonnay received a 93 point rating from Wine Enthusiast, both from these same vines. The vines were planted for the famous Chardonnay producer Cecil DeLoach on soils shared with LaCrema and Benovia MartaElla.
