Rochioli Vineyard’s hallmark balance of richness and precision is on full display, offering an inviting aromatic profile layered with Meyer lemon zest, beeswax and crème fraîche. On the palate, a medium bodied, silky texture carries flavors of crisp green apple, grapefruit pith, and subtle pastry tones, lifted by vibrant freshness. Poised and expressive now, with the structure and energy to evolve beautifully, this is a classic, age-worthy expression of Rochioli Chardonnay.

Vineyard Notes
Rochioli Vineyard was originally purchased in 1938 by Joe Rochioli, Sr. The vision of growing Pinot Noir and Chardonnay along these fertile, gravelly soils was carried out by Joe Jr. after his father’s passing in 1966. Most of the Chardonnay blocks are located at the far eastern edge of the estate, just off the meandering Russian River, where the vines literally soak up the remarkable terroir of the estate. The partnership between Gary Farrell Winery and the Rochioli Vineyard began more than 40 years ago with a simple handshake and has become a fundamental part of our story here in the Russian River Valley.
