RATINGS

94Vinous / IWC

Honeydew melon, nectarine and pear qualities on the highly perfumed, finely etched nose. Shows excellent depth as well as clarity on the palate, offering an array of concentrated, finely detailed orchard and pit fruit flavors and suggestions of gingery spices and toasted bread. Shows superb energy and mineral cut on the energetic finish, which features a sexy floral quality and a sweetening touch of vanilla.

93Wine Enthusiast

Ripe white-peach and honeysuckle aromas are leveled by oak, sea salt, toasted almond and seared lemon on the rich nose...palate is hefty and rich, with lemon, white peach and roasted nut flavors, balanced by a powerful acid and a lime zest touch that carries through the long finish.

93Jeb Dunnuck

Notes of caramelized apple, hints of tropical fruits, and plenty of toasted spice carry to a richer, rounded, beautifully concentrated Chardonnay that stays pure and elegant on the palate...beautiful wine...
