Best Chardonnay in Yountville

Chardonnay is one of Yountville's most versatile wines, ranging from lean and mineral-driven to rich and buttery depending on the winemaker's style and the vineyard's location. Cooler sites produce crisp, apple-and-citrus expressions, while warmer areas yield rounder, more tropical wines.

Explore Yountville's best Chardonnay producers below and discover the full spectrum of this classic varietal.
