2008 Lewis Cellars Russian River Valley Chardonnay

Founded in Napa Valley in 1992 by Randy and Debbie Lewis, Lewis Cellars built its reputation on small-lot Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot, Syrah, and Sauvignon Blanc sourced from premier vineyard sites across Napa Valley and Sonoma County. The winery gained international attention when its 2013 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon was named Wine Spectator's Wine of the Year in 2016. Today, Lewis Cellars remains focused on luxury-scale production, working with a combination of estate vineyards and long-term grower relationships. Winemaking has long been led by Dennis Bell, whose tenure spans more than two decades and whose approach emphasizes meticulous vineyard selection, ripe fruit expression, and careful blending.
