La Crema Wine

La Crema started as La Crema Vinera, which translates to Best of the Vine. True to its name, the vineyards produce the best grapes in the region. These grapes reflect on the wine as the wines are some of the best from Oregon and California. The wines made are inspired by Pinot Noir and Chardonnay styles of Burgundy, with the wines being made with distinct flavours. The final product produces elegant wines of high quality that do not deteriorate with time. The team has multiple great wine-growing regions like the Sonoma coast, Russian River and Willamette Valley.

La Crema Wines

With some of the best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in the industry, we will have a look at these in-depth and what makes them so special.

The Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir is a juicy, fruity, sun-filled red from the long coast of California with an attractive ruby colour. On the nose, it is very fruity with plenty of raspberry and strawberry flavours, hints of herbs, and a slight earthiness, too. For the palate, the wine is supple and smooth with a slight acidity to ensure freshness, giving a slight hint of spice from ageing in oak barrels. The Californian Pinot Noir is very successful with its smooth and fruity base, and it's easy to drink.

The Sonoma Coast Chardonnay boasts a rich yellow-gold colour with scents of ripe exotic fruits like pineapple and nectarines with nuances of vanilla. On the palate, there is a refreshing acidity with a succulent, juicy feel. Well balanced with an intense natural fruitiness and medium body, it is a great wine to enjoy on its own or with a wide selection of foods such as cheese or meats.

La Crema Heritage

La Crema was established in 1979, showcasing exceptional wines from the cool-climate regions across California and Oregon. Since its inception, its vision has been to produce wines with distinct qualities that are delicious to drink, have uncompromised craftsmanship, and produce wine in a sustainable way. Their home of Sonoma County in California has produced quality and is now recognised as a world-class wine region.

At La Crema, the winemaking team is dedicated to capturing the essence of the terroir, expressing the unique personality and profile of each vineyard. They achieve this by blending the best Burgundian winemaking philosophies with a California style. This meticulous process ensures that each bottle of La Crema wine is a true reflection of its origin and a testament to its commitment to craftsmanship.

The ethos of La Crema is never to compromise, whether it's the wines they make, the people they hire or the issues they support. They have created an industry-leading commitment to sustainable farming practices and uplifting underrepresented voices; they are proud of creating a culture of more than just winemaking with supporting cultures and empowering people, too. It has always been about delivering a quality experience, inspiring real connections with real people and pairing it with a passion for life.
