About this wine

Rodney Strong has made a Chalk Hill Chardonnay since 1977, when it released the first wine under that name, and this one draws on the estate's Arata, Pleasant and River East vineyards plus two long-time Healdsburg growers. Chalk Hill is a warm corner of the Russian River Valley with pale volcanic-ash soils that keep yields low. Expect lemon pie, custard and quince over creamy oak, with green apple and a grapefruit finish.

Tasting notes
NoseLemon pie and custard with exotic quince and layers of creamy oak

from the producer

Rodney Strong Vineyards dates from 1959, when Rod Strong, one of Sonoma County's early wine pioneers, started it in Healdsburg; the Klein family has owned it since 1989. Strong planted the first Chardonnay in what became the Chalk Hill AVA in 1965, and the winery now farms more than a thousand acres of estate vineyards across Sonoma County.
