Why This Gift
A selection of small-production Chardonnays curated by Gold Medal Wine Club
If we didn't trust Gold Medal Wine Club, we wouldn't suggest sending this six-pack of Chardonnay, mostly because we can't guarantee which specific Chardonnays will be in the box. But we DO trust Gold Medal Wine Club to pack a lot of value into their wine sets, so you can confidently give this gift of Chardonnay.
About the Wine
J. Wilkes 2018 Chardonnay
The cool-climate Santa Maria Valley is known for growing top-notch Chardonnay with plenty of complexity and elegance. J. Wilkes' 2018 Chardonnay opens with aromas of lime blossom, green apple, browned butter, ripe pear and hints of clean ocean air. On the palate, concentrated fruit is balanced by fresh minerality that leads into a lively and bright finish. 2018 was one of the longest, coolest growing seasons in Santa Maria Valley in almost a decade, which allowed this wine to be both restrained and incredibly flavorful. Try pairing the J. Wilkes 2018 Chardonnay with shrimp tempura.
DuMOL 2016 Chardonnay Wester Reach
Quintessentially DuMOL in style and inherent quality, the fruit for this 2016 Chardonnay came from vines that are between 34-44 years old growing on classic vineyard estates. Each site bringing a unique flavor profile to this complex Chardonnay from orange zest, white flower, and sweet sage to hay aromas that give way to softer peach and apricot. The palate is full of ripe stone fruits, with delicate undertones of oatmeal and almond. Balanced with vibrant freshness, the finish is long, cleansing, and refined. Cheers!

Rutz 2018 Chardonnay
With five generations of French viniculture heritage, Keith Rutz strives to create a Russian River Valley Chardonnay that has a great backbone of natural acidity and structure, a crisp, cool limestone minerality character, finesse, and balance. Pale gold in color, the 2018 Proprietors Reserve Chardonnay leads with minerality and savory herb notes. The nose offers a hint of stone fruit like golden apple and pear skin, followed by a range of Provence herbs. The oak is almost unnoticeable, until a hint of toasted sesame seed arises on the finish. This Chardonnay clearly speaks to the terroir of the Russian River Valley, with flint and sandy limestone across the subdued yet wildly drinkable palate.
