Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2013 Chardonnay River Block (fashioned from the Old Wente and Dijon clone 95) reveals a distinctive, gravelly, wet pebbly minerality in addition to notes of white currants, quince, unbuttered popcorn and a hint of new oak. Medium to full-bodied and Chablis-like with its minerality and display of unadorned fruit, this beauty can be enjoyed over the next 4-7 years.

The Rochioli family has been growing grapes on its 136-acre ranch since the 1930s. In 1987, Tom Rochioli created the first Rochioli Estate Pinot Noir which Wine Spectator named “The Best Pinot Noir in America.” The Rochioli Vineyard is situated in a very diverse part of the Russian River Valley promoting diversity in the soil types, proximity to the ocean, as well as the contours of the valley, allowing for morning fog and cool evening breezes.
With three generations of dedication to the land, Rochioli Vineyards & Winery has earned the reputation as one of Sonoma County’s finest wineries. The decades-long tradition of outstanding vintages continues today with wines that consistently receive rave reviews and 90+ scores. Always in demand, always revered and always rated among the best varietals sought after around the world.
