Ramey Russian River Valley Chardonnay
David and Carla Ramey founded Ramey Wine Cellars in Healdsburg in 1996, after David had made wine at Simi, Matanzas Creek, Chalk Hill and Dominus and worked at Château Pétrus in Bordeaux. His work helped pioneer whole-cluster pressing, native-yeast fermentation, barrel lees ageing and unfiltered bottling in California Chardonnay, and since 2021 his children Claire and Alan have run the winery as co-presidents. Parts of the Russian River Valley lie within ten miles of the Pacific, and morning fog flows in through the Petaluma Gap. This bottling comes from cool, low-vigor sites on Goldridge loam, planted mostly to UC Davis Clone 4, known for its bright acidity. The clusters are pressed whole, fermented in barrel with native yeast and full malolactic, stirred on the lees, aged 12 months in French oak (about 10% new) and bottled unfiltered. It is the Ramey method written in the valley's cool, crisp fruit.
Real reviews from The Cheese Store of Beverly Hills Google Business Profile. Curated by Dom and his team since 1967.
Domenico and his team are fantastic. I’m a chef and I often get my supplies from The Cheese Store — unique products, carefully selected, from top Italian and French cheeses to excellent local ones.
Absolutely loved the cheese store! Everyone was super helpful and friendly. Lena helped us — she was very knowledgeable on all the cheeses: where they came from, what the region is like, what they are known for. It was like wine tasting for cheese.
Ordered several cheeses from them and the wrong items were delivered. Contacted the store and they recognized the error and immediately sent the correct order the next day without any fuss. Really appreciate the promptness and professionalism.
