Dutton Ranch Chardonnay One of Robb Report’s Top Winter Whites

We’re honored to share that Robb Report has included our 2023 Dutton Ranch Chardonnay in its recent feature, “7 Bold White Wines to Drink All Winter Long,” published January 2, 2026.

The article celebrates white wines that bring richness, texture, and presence to the colder months. Think fondue nights, roast chicken, pork loin, oysters, and long winter dinners with friends. In other words, exactly the moments this wine was made for.

In their tasting notes, Robb Report highlights the wine’s aromas of lemon zest, Fuji apple, and vanilla, along with flavors of caramelized pineapple, fresh ginger, citrus blossom, and a subtle salinity, all carried by bright acidity. We love seeing the balance and versatility of this wine recognized alongside standout producers from around the world.

The Dutton Ranch Chardonnay is a Russian River Valley cuvée sourced from select Dutton family–farmed vineyards, crafted to deliver both generosity and precision. It’s a bottle that feels just as comfortable on a winter table as it does on a sunny afternoon.

We’re grateful to Robb Report, and to writers Mike DeSimone and Jeff Jenssen (@WorldWineGuys), for the recognition. Most of all, we’re grateful to everyone who continues to open, share, and enjoy these wines season after season.
