Crosby Wines

A medium-weight, lightly oaky California Chardonnay. Notes of red apples, butterscotch, baking spices, and white flowers.

Producer Information

The wines of Crosby are often crafted from declassified grapes that otherwise would have created a wine that cost considerably more money. Crosby wines are all about great quality at a value price. With the help of experienced vineyard managers and grape growers from around California they seek out the best sources for each variety in each vintage. Their sources for grapes and winemakers remain anonymous for Crosby, but their standards stay at the highest level to bring the best value into the market from California.

Wine Making

Minimal intervention in the vineyard and as little as possible in the winery. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel followed by several months in second and third fill French oak barrels to allow the varietal character of the wine to shine through.

Tasting Note

Aromas of golden delicious apple, lemon zest and pineapple with vanilla and butter toffee. Lifted acidity and subtle minerality lead into a bright finish.

Food Matching

Perfect with roast chicken, creamy sauces and meaty white fish.
