La Crema Monterey Chardonnay

La Crema, established in 1979, is recognized for its focus on cool-climate appellations across California. While originally rooted in Sonoma’s Russian River Valley, the winery has expanded to regions like Monterey, where coastal fog and strong ocean breezes contribute to extended growing seasons and enhanced flavour development.
