The Story

Chardonnays have a bad rep…we get it. Most of them are butter bombs with too much oak and let’s face it, that’s not how most of us like our Chardonnays. The good news is we worked hard to make a really well balanced Chardonnay, with some oak (not too much) and nice acidity to complement it. Oaky Chardonnay drinkers love it (obviously) but most non-Chardonnay lovers are also pleasantly surprised by this one.

About Obvious Wines

Producer Story

Created by reformed “wine-snob” originally from Champagne, France, founder Brice Baillie noticed a gap between an overall growing interest and love for Boutique, Vegan & Eco-friendly wines, yet high level of intimidation towards selecting and discussing them.

In 2018, he decided to create an accessible and playful brand that still checked all the necessary boxes of high-quality, eco-conscious wine. So, he got to work cold-calling wineries in California to identify those who were open to partnerships and met his criteria. Eventually, he got a bite, and Obvious Wines was born.
