Savoy Chardonnay

The 2023 Savoy Chardonnay marks the inaugural release from our newest vineyard acquisition in Anderson Valley, the acclaimed Savoy Vineyard. While best known for producing award-winning Pinot Noir, this historic site also includes a small block of Chardonnay planted in the mid-1990s. Anderson Valley yields a distinctive style of Chardonnay, celebrated for its savory character.

Savoy Vineyard

In 2023, Donum acquired the iconic 52-acre Savoy Vineyard, a historic site planted in 1991 by Richard Savoy in the heart of Anderson Valley near the confluence of Gowan Creek and the Navarro River. Known for its cool climate, high winds and exceptional soil, Savoy is home to over 40 acres of established Pinot Noir and a small block of Chardonnay, with vines dating back to the mid-1990s. This acquisition marked Donum’s first established vineyard purchase and a significant milestone in expanding its estate portfolio. With the 2023 vintage, Donum introduced its first Savoy wines.
