Tasting Notes
The 2023 La Crema Russian River Chardonnay offers aromas of white peach, lemon zest, and green pear, are followed by subtle hints of toasted hazelnut and spices. Flavors of apple, lemon curd, and pineapple are throughout the palate, while rich flavors of vanilla custard start to shine through. A vibrant and concentrated balance of acidity drives a lingering finish.
About the Winery
La Crema was established in 1979 to showcase exceptional wines from the best cool-climate regions across California and Oregon. Since the beginning, our vision has been to produce artisanal wines with distinct qualities: delicious to drink, uncompromised craftsmanship, and sustainably farmed. Our home in Sonoma County, California ignited our passion for coastal, single-vineyard sites. We knew the quality the region could offer, so we focused our efforts on exploring new sites and sharing their unique terroirs. Today, Sonoma County is celebrated as a world-class wine region.
We measure La Crema’s success by how many people enjoy our wines and the positive impact we make in our communities. The ethos of La Crema is to never compromise—whether it’s the wines we make, the people we hire, or the issues we support. We’re proud of our industry-leading commitment to sustainable farming practices and uplifting underrepresented voices while honoring their individuality. Our investment in diversity and inclusion efforts continues to grow year over year as we embrace each opportunity to make a real difference. It’s always been about delivering the highest quality experience, inspiring real connections with real people, and pairing it all with a passion for life. (This is wine after all!)
As we look forward, our vision for La Crema is brighter than ever. We invite you to celebrate The Best of the Vine with us. Cheers!
