RATINGS

96Vinous / IWC

...fabulous. Rich, heady and effusive, but with no excess weight, the Silver Eagle positively dazzles. Orange peel, crème brûlée, sweet oak, spice and butter are all beautifully balanced by bright floral and mineral accents that add freshness. The precision here is just unreal. What a gorgeous wine this is.

93Wine Spectator

Ripe Bosc pear, yellow apple and white peach notes are graceful and aromatic, with notes of orange blossom, clover honey and candied ginger on a plush frame, followed by a hint of salted, toasted hazelnut on the finish.

93Jeb Dunnuck

...herbal, with fresh spearmint, a touch of flinty reduction, lime candy, and sea spray. The palate is juicy and ripe with sweet orchard fruit of candied peach, followed by freshness on the back with orange blossom.

REGION

United States, California, Sonoma, Sonoma Coast

Sonoma Coast AVA runs from San Pablo Bay in the south to Mendocino County in the north. It includes 7,000 vineyard acres and earned AVA status in 1987. Its proximity to the Pacific Ocean means it gets double the rainfall of nearby inland appellations and the ocean gives the appellation a relatively cool climate. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir can thrive in these conditions, and there are numerous producers making critically acclaimed Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

TYPE

White Wine, Chardonnay

This white variety originated in Burgundy, but is now grown around the world. Its flexibility to thrive in many regions translates to wide flavor profile in the market. Chardonnay is commonly used in making Champagne and sparkling wines.
