California Roots: Making Wine for Real Life

The California Roots wine line was created to deliver quality and flavor at a price point that makes everyday wine drinking accessible. Crafted with grapes from some of California’s best winegrowing regions, the focus is on approachability, value, and consistency—without compromising on taste.

California’s warm climate, cooled by ocean breezes and morning fog, provides the ideal environment for Chardonnay grapes to develop both richness and freshness. The grapes for California Roots Chardonnay are typically picked at peak ripeness to ensure generous fruit flavors, and the winemaking process includes gentle fermentation and careful blending to create a smooth, well-integrated profile.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: A beautiful golden straw color, inviting and bright in the glass.
Aroma: The nose offers a pleasing bouquet of ripe apples, pears, and hints of tropical fruit like pineapple and mango. There’s also a gentle layer of vanilla and buttery oak, adding a soft richness that hints at the smooth palate to follow.

Palate: Medium-bodied and silky, the wine opens with fresh orchard fruit—crisp apple, juicy pear, and stone fruit—followed by subtle notes of vanilla cream and a light toastiness. It has a soft, mellow acidity that keeps it refreshing without being sharp, making each sip glide easily. The finish is clean, with a lingering impression of creamy fruit and gentle oak.

Food Pairings

California Roots Chardonnay’s mellow richness and fruit-forward style make it a versatile food wine. It complements creamy, buttery, or lightly spiced dishes particularly well.

Here are some delicious pairing ideas:

• Roast chicken with garlic and herbs

• Grilled salmon or trout with lemon butter

• Shrimp pasta Alfredo or creamy risotto

• Cheddar or Gruyère cheese boards

• Butternut squash soup or sweet potato fries

• Vegetable quiche, creamy mushroom dishes, or roasted cauliflower

Its balanced style allows it to hold up to richer textures, while the clean finish makes it a match for mildly spiced meals too.

When & How to Serve

Chardonnay is best served slightly chilled, ideally at 10–13°C (50–55°F). This helps bring out the creaminess and tropical fruit notes without muting its subtle oak and spice.

Chill it in the fridge for about 1.5 hours before serving, or pop it into an ice bucket for 30 minutes if you’re short on time. Once opened, it stays fresh for 2–3 days in the fridge with a wine stopper.

This wine is perfect for:

• Relaxed evenings at home

• Casual dinners with friends

• Outdoor brunches and daytime sipping

• Wine spritzers with fruit and soda on hot days

It’s also a great “starter Chardonnay” if you’re exploring the style for the first time—gentle, fruity, and not too oaky.
