THE STORY

About this wine

From fog-cooled vineyards between the Russian River and the Sonoma Coast, the 2024 Chardonnay opens with jasmine and citrus blossom, then silky citrus, vibrant acidity, and a clean, mineral-lined finish.

Alma de Cattleya is the Sonoma County label of Colombian-born winemaker Bibiana González Rave. The Chardonnay is sourced from cool, fog-influenced vineyards between the Russian River and Sonoma Coast, with hand-harvesting, gentle pressing, fermentation in neutral and new barrels, and 11 months of aging in neutral barrels and stainless steel tanks.

Worth knowing

The name points home: Alma de Cattleya is named for the Cattleya orchid, native to Colombia, the birth country of winemaker Bibiana González Rave. The label works as the more affordable companion to her Cattleya wines.

CHARACTERISTICS AND TASTING TIPS OF THE Alma de Cattleya Chardonnay Sonoma County 2024

Tasting

Color: White
Nose: Jasmine and citrus blossom come first, then bitter orange peel and white flowers, with pear underneath and a quiet tropical fruit note emerging last.
Palate: Light- to medium-bodied and textural. Citrus and lemon curd lead, crisp green apple and pear behind, and a pleasing citrusy oiliness coats the mouth in silk — vibrant, cleansing acidity carries it all into a long, mineral-lined finish with a gentle oak nuance.
