Gainey Vineyard Sta. Rita Hills Chardonnay 2020

Wine Enthusiast : 92 Points

(7/1/2022) The nose of this bottling straddles both the rich aromas of baked apple cake with cinnamon and the fresh hints of lime flesh and lime blossom. A Meyer lemon kick enlivens the palate, where sea-salt and pear flavors converge.

Vinous - Antonio Galloni : 92 Points

(6/2022) The 2020 Chardonnay Estate bristles with tension. A bit more floral and citrus driven than in some past vintages. Partially blocked malolactic fermentation keeps the flavors bright. There's plenty of depth and structure here too. Drinking Window 2022 - 2028.
