MERRY EDWARDS OLIVET LANE CHARDONNAY RUSSIAN RIVER VALLEY SONOMA COUNTY 2020

Olivet Lane, a heritage property and one of the oldest existing vineyards in the appellation, has been recognized as a prime producer of Russian River Valley Chardonnay (and, of course, Pinot Noir). Our 2021 single-vineyard Chardonnay is classic Olivet Lane: bright and luscious. Scents of fresh summer peaches, kiwi, lemon zest, white flowers and lush butterscotch rise from the glass. The bright entry leads to a core of juicy acidity. This wine dances across your palate, with a warm toasty finish featuring accents of yellow stone fruit, cream soda and honeycomb.

The rich creaminess of Roasted Sunchoke Bisque mirrors our Chardonnay’s lavish character while setting off its vibrant acidity, which makes for a very satisfying light winter meal.
