Marimar Estate Acero Chardonnay
THE CHARDONNAY THAT BEST REPRESENTS THE QUALITY OF OUR FRUIT
The name Acero evokes the fact that this wine has never been in contact with oak. The grapes, specially selected for their aromatic intensity, ferment in stainless steel in order to retain the purity of flavors. After completing malolactic fermentation, the wine remains in the tanks until it is bottled in the spring.
Marimar Torres, Founder and Owner of Marimar Estate, inaugurated the winery in 1992, built in the purest style of a Catalan farmhouse, after a long period searching for the most authentic and representative terroir of the area.
Located in the western hills of the prestigious Russian River / Green Valley appellation, in Sonoma County, the property benefits from an especially cold and foggy climate, considered the most unique within California’s Russian River Valley. It specializes in the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir varieties, as well as some Spanish varieties such as Godello, Albariño, and Tempranillo, cultivated in the Don Miguel and Doña Margarita vineyards, named in honor of Marimar’s parents, in recognition of their legacy and family tradition.
Since 2023, her daughter Cristina has been the General Manager of the winery, bringing with her an impressive academic background that includes Princeton and Wharton, and a professional career that has taken her around half the world.
Russian River Valley. California

This region, marked by the influence of coastal fog coming from the Pacific Ocean, enjoys a cool and moderate climate that favors a slow and balanced ripening of the grapes. The Russian River Valley stretches across a landscape of gentle hills and valleys, where the diversity of soils and microclimates gives rise to wines of great complexity and expression.
The uniqueness of this appellation is especially reflected in its Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, emblematic varieties that find here an ideal environment to develop their full aromatic and gustatory potential. The combination of winemaking tradition, innovation, and respect for the environment has made Russian River Valley one of the most prestigious regions in California and a global benchmark for wine lovers.
