RATINGS

97+ The Wine Advocate

Opens with a positively electric nose of ripe apricots, pink grapefruit and green mango ..candied ginger, honeycomb, allspice and baking bread. Medium to full-bodied, the palate ..,cutting through the dense tropical and stone fruit layers

97Jeb Dunnuck

The Chardonnay dominates on the nose which shows terrific buttered citrus, stone fruits, marzipan and brioche nuances. These carry over to the palate where the wine is full-bodied, thrillingly concentrated and textured, with bright, even racy acidity.

94Vinous / IWC

H a huge nose of apricot, peach pit, honey, chamomile and herbs. Ample and luscious on the palate, with tremendous depth... 40% Chardonnay, 40% Roussanne, 8% Petite Manseng and 8% Viognier.

REGION

United States, California, Central Coast

Central Coast AVA is a huge wine producing area that extends from Santa Barbara County in the south to San Francisco in the north. With more than 100,000 vineyard acres, it includes parts of six counties near the Pacific Ocean. Nearly 20 smaller AVAs lie within the Central Coast AVA. Central Coast earned appellation status in 1985. Included in the appellation are parts of the counties of Contra Costa, Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz. Nearly every grape varietal grown in California is grown somewhere in the Central Coast AVA, though Chardonnay accounts for nearly 50% of the entire wine grape crop.
