This is one of those wines that quietly explains why David Ramey is considered one of the architects of modern California Chardonnay.
Ramey’s résumé reads like a history of serious winemaking. UC Davis. Bordeaux at Petrus. Matanzas Creek. Chalk Hill. Rudd. Then finally Ramey Wine Cellars, where he refined a style that blends California fruit with French restraint and precision.
The Ramey Russian River Chardonnay is a masterclass in balance. Whole cluster pressed. Only about ten percent new French oak. No makeup. No excess. Just pure Chardonnay expression from some of the best vineyard sources in the Russian River Valley, including sites like Rochioli, Martinelli, and Kirkland.
The 2022 vintage earned massive recognition, landing as the number ten wine in Wine Spectator’s Top 100, and it is easy to understand why. Cool foggy mornings, enough afternoon sun, and Ramey’s disciplined hand in the cellar produce a wine that feels energetic, layered, and quietly powerful.
What makes this offer even better is the format. These are half bottles, which solve a real problem. Weeknight fish. A quick aperitif. Wanting great Chardonnay without committing to a full bottle. This is the answer.
In the glass, it is fresh, precise, and beautifully textured. Citrus oil, orchard fruit, subtle stone, and a clean mineral line that makes it feel just as much white Burgundy as California Chardonnay.
At $19.98, this is one of the smartest Chardonnay buys you can make. It will not last long. And yes, you will be sad when you drink your last one.
