Unpredictable. Spontaneous. Unrelenting. All it takes is a slight shift in Cleveland’s perpetually-swirling winds to turn the home of the Browns into a snow globe. To the visitors, it’s a nightmare — an unexpected, icy slap in the face. To the Cleveland Browns and their fans — seasoned always to be ready for a sudden shift in the elements — it’s a warm reminder that the ultimate home-field advantage is best served cold.

We introduce you to Lake Effect. This Chardonnay is a real gem. Hailing from the cool and foggy climate for the Russian River Valley in Sonoma County, this beautiful medium-bodied wine was grown slowly to build intense flavors over time. This wine was aged in French oak and displays a beautiful balance of fruit, oak and liveliness on the palate and exhibits lush mango and toasted almond. Balanced fruit with tarte acidity makes this wine a classic example of Premium Russian River Chardonnay.
