The Character
Tasting Notes The 2024 Valravn Chardonnay opens with vivid aromas of tangerine peel, citrus blossom, and ripe stone fruit. Hints of lychee and a delicate thread of coastal salinity lend lift and intrigue to the palate. The oak is subtle, contributing more to a supple, rounded texture than to overt flavor, letting the vibrant fruit and minerality shine.
Awards 91pts James Suckling, 90pts Vinous
The Story
Grapes are hand-harvested from select vineyards - a core of Russian River Valley fruit (some Dry Creek) with cut barrel selections from our Marine Layer designated wines (all Sonoma Coast), including Bohemian, Heintz, Gaps Crown, Hawk Hill, and MLV Estate vineyards.
About Valravn
Producer Story
We have been making wine in Sonoma County for over ten years now, and along the way, established a dynamic network of friends and colleagues that includes vineyard owners, growers, and winemakers. While we successfully navigated the négoce market in the past, Valravn represents the next evolutionary step for us. Because of those forged relationships and friendships, we have exclusive access to grapes from fantastic vineyards and the team to oversee hands-on production from vineyard to bottle. We are proud of our past achievements and excited to realize the culmination of a decade of learning and focus, bringing authentic wines to the table that we have found, seen, and touched at every step.
