RATINGS

98Jeb Dunnuck

Killer white flower, citrus blossom, orchard fruits, and salty minerality all flow to a medium to full-bodied, ultra-pure, precise, and elegant Chardonnay.

97The Wine Advocate

...opens with complex savory and earthy notes of yeast extract, baking bread, toasted almonds, crushed rocks and sandy soil with a core of warm grapefruit, preserved lemons, kumquats and nectarines plus a waft of oyster shell.

96Vinous / IWC

A whole range of citrus, floral and savory notes give the wine its distinctive character. There is just so much going on.

93Wine Spectator

Refined, featuring flavors of apple pastry, dried pear and quince that are lightly spiced, with dried savory notes midpalate. Offers a clean, minerally finish.
