"A world-class wine, the 2022 ‘Bob’s Ranch’ Chardonnay comes from this site purchased by the HALLs more than ten years ago. This site is known for shallow soils and fog. This is big and unabashedly bold on the mouth, loaded with texture and mouth-watering acidity. Poached pear and creme brûlée flavors combine with roasted pineapple and mango—giving this plenty of exotic appeal. Fresh and deep, with great length, enjoy this beautiful wine now and over the next fifteen years."

"...Anjou pear, cinnamon and floral aromas from the glass. The palate is plush and richly textured, with plenty of baked apple, baking spice and oak structure. Drink this with crab cakes or roasted halibut in beurre blanc."

Bob’s Ranch Vineyard is characterized by its proximity to the Pacific Ocean. Coastal breezes along with low rolling hills and morning fog define this cool climate. This marine layer keeps the vineyard 15 degrees cooler than the rest of the Russian River. The terroir is mostly fine sandy loam soil that gives excellent drainage and leads to low vigor vines and small yields.
