Two Rivers Wines

Two Rivers Reserve Chardonnay

It has often been said that truly great wines are made in the vineyard - an approach that we have come to fully appreciate and endorse over the years. Our philosophy has been to isolate select parcels of Chardonnay grapes that will best deliver a wine displaying distinct varietal and true regional character.

Our 2007 Two Rivers Reserve Chardonnay is a perfect example of a true Hunter Chardonnay. Enjoy!

"Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is wine. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza."

Dave Barry
