A select group of winemakers can be credited with revolutionizing modern day winemaking in California. David Ramey is widely acknowledged to be among the wine pioneers whose efforts helped raise the bar for all American winemakers and brought California to the forefront of the international wine scene. David’s groundbreaking work with indigenous yeasts, malolactic and barrel fermentation yielded a new California Chardonnay style that was richer, more lush and silky smooth than previously known. Sonoma Coast Chardonnay rich without being heavy, showing cooler coastal climate characteristics of clean fruitiness, elegance, bright acidity on briny, minerally palate.
