(5/21/2020) "From another awesome vineyard in the Russian River, the 2017 Chardonnay Rochioli Vineyard is one of the richer, more powerful Chardonnay in the lineup. Medium gold-colored, with notes of sauteed orchard fruits, brioche, honeysuckle, and lemon curd, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, good acidity, and a mouthfilling texture that keeps you coming back. It actually gains freshness and vibrancy with time in the glass and is another age-worthy, brilliant Chardonnay from Ramey I'd be happy to have in the cellar."

(4/30/2019) "Pow! The nose of the 2016 Chardonnay Ritchie Vineyard is gregarious with loads of melon, guava, peach and buttery touches plus lemon curd, pastry crust and caramel hints. Medium to full-bodied, it packs in a wallop of flavor layers-from luscious ripe fruits to bakery and mineral notes-framed by absolutely mouthwatering acidity and phenolic texture and finishing very long with amazing energy. Grapes for this wine come from vines planted in 1972. It fermented in barrel with batonnage and aged in 22% new French oak for 20 months. 898 cases produced. Drink Date: 2019 - 2029."

(10/1/2019) "The second vintage of this vineyard-designate is a standout: beautifully crafted to reflect its meticulously farmed fruit and master winemaking. Brioche, honeyed apple, anise and pear wrap around crisp acidity and integrated oak, the wine's innate power balanced within an elegant framework of structure and graceful texture."

Peirson Meyer "Sophia's Vineyard" Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2017

Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(9/2019) "The 2017 Chardonnay Sophia's Vineyard is bright, precise and wonderfully nuanced. Although labeled as Russian River in appellation, the Sophias emerges from the Russian River's Green Valley district, where the wines tend to be especially focused. Expressive saline notes give this energetic, finely cut Chardonnay tons of pure class. This is one of the most impressive wines I have tasted from Alan Peirson and Robbie Meyer. Drinking window: 2020 - 2027"

Panthera Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2017

Wine Advocate
(10/31/2019) "This is the second vintage of this wine. Fruit comes primarily from Dutton vineyard. The 2017 Chardonnay Panthera charges out of the gate with energetic white peach, lime leaves, fresh apricots and lemongrass scents with wafts of honeycomb and nutmeg. Full-bodied, rich and seductive in the mouth, it has an enticing oiliness to the texture and plenty of racy freshness to balance, finishing long and savory. Drink Date: 2019 - 2024"

Wine Advocate
(9/24/2020) "The 2018 Chardonnay Cuvée Alyce opens slowly to lovely aromas of warm peaches and apricots with accents of toast, roasted almonds and honey. The medium-bodied palate is silky, super concentrated, layered and fresh, cut through with uplifting mineral character and finishing very, very long. Gorgeous! 1,154 cases produced."

(9/24/2020) "The 2018 Chardonnay Cahill Lane has very pretty scents of quince and baked apples with notes of crushed hazelnuts, beeswax and white blossoms. The medium-bodied palate is satiny and packed to the gills with concentrated, layered flavors, and it finishes long with bright freshness calling you in for another sip. 907 cases produced.

J Vineyards "Cuvee 20" Russian River Valley Brut NV
90
Our Score
(10/2017) We've not worked with this well known California sparkling wine in a while and that's probably been a mistake. The J "Cuvée 20" gives attractive flavors of tangerine, lemon,red and yellow apple and freshly baked croissant. In the mouth, it is creamy with a medium mousse and a balanced, bright finish. Very tasty stuff.

(6/14/2019). "From a site in the Russian River Valley, the 2017 Chardonnay Jos. Belli Vineyards spent 11 months in a mix of new and used French oak. Its light gold color is followed by notes of ripe pineapple, peach, honeysuckle, and white flowers. It's rounded, has a fleshy, medium-bodied mouthfeel, notable balance, and a clean finish. It's rock solid and one pleasure bent, impeccably made Chardonnay to drink over the coming couple of years. Maturity: 2019 - 2021"
