Woodbridge, established in 1979 by Robert Mondavi, offers a diverse selection of wines, including cabernet sauvignon, chardonnay, and zinfandel. Growing up in Lodi, a region primarily associated with bulk wines, Mondavi was motivated to create approachable and reasonably priced wines that emphasized fruit flavors. He acquired a local grape growers' cooperative and named the winery after the nearby town of Woodbridge.
Sourcing grapes from California's Central Coast, Woodbridge Chardonnay grapes undergo gentle aging in oak barrels. The outcome is a crisp and well-balanced wine with a refreshing finish, ideal for pairing with seafood, poultry, or creamy pasta dishes.

Delicate, pale wine with a subtle golden hue, featuring a nose of green apple, pear, and a note of citrus, even by a medium level of bracing quality and a green apple-dominated body, with a touch of oak influence.
