What Critics Think
Wine Advocate : 92 Points
(12/14/2023) The 2022 Chardonnay, made with 98% estate fruit, is open and perfumed with scents of fresh quince, yellow apples, cashews, acacia and bread dough. The light-bodied palate features generous, crunchy fruit, a touch of roundness to its texture, tangy freshness and a long, ethereal finish. This is very easy to drink! Drink Date: 2024 - 2030.
James Suckling : 92 Points
(7/3/2023) A full and layered white with sliced cooked apple and lemon aromas and flavors. Plenty of cooked apple, lemon skin and mineral undertones. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
Jeb Dunnuck : 92 Points
(7/21/2023) The 2022 Chardonnay Sonoma Coast takes on a touch deeper straw appearance but is still pale yellow and offers notes of wet stone, ripe peach, and melon rind. It’s full-bodied, with a rounded mouthfeel and good lifted freshness, more ripe peach, melon, and flowers and a good finish. This attractive white also reveals a touch of warming spice. Drink it over the next few years.
