Cattleya Chardonnay Call To Adventure Russian River Valley 2019 750 ML

Very subtle aromas of Meyer lemon peel, sea salt, baked apples and light butter make for a very smooth and pleasant entry to the nose of this wine. There’s a strong chalky tension to the palate, where the fantastic grip unleashes flavors of citrus pith with a minty lift.n n Producer Informationn Bibiana González Rave is the founder and winemaker of Cattleya Wines. Born and raised in Colombia and trained as a winemaker in France, she moved to California in 2007 to settle into making extraordinary wines. In her words: Since my early teenage years, my dream has been to make wine.Cattleya At a very young age I was fortunate enough to begin learning how to make wine in France. I trained myself while working with some amazing winemakers who showed me the importance of loving the Cattleya land, how to respect the farming itself, and to focus on the many details that go into making each drop of wine in each and every bottle. While studying in Bordeaux and Cognac I learned the required viticulture, enology and microbiology (“wine science”); but most importantly,Cattleya I was also exposed to the many rituals involved in winemaking–things like pruning, harvesting and bottling–that feel so special and meaningful each season.Cattleya I told myself that one day a bottle of wine would be infused with the longings of my soul through fruit produced from a specific terroir that spoke to my heart. That place I have found Cattleya.
