James Suckling: 93 Points

This is attractive with sliced pears and glazed lemons with salted caramel, raw almonds and cream. Medium- to full-bodied, so lively and textural at the same time. It is clean and pure with crunchy stone fruit and chamomile aromas on offer, with a flavorful, creamy finish. 100% barrel fermented with native yeast.

Wine Enthusiast: 91 Points

This is a medium-bodied treat, beginning with its big time, hunger-inducing butter, seared scallops, tarragon and lemon aromas. Equally rich decadent lemon butter, brioche and fried sage flavors seal the deal. Pair this with a bucket of popcorn and any Jason Statham film that's not “Ghosts of Mars.”

Jeb Dunnuck: 90 Points

All barrel fermented and aged 10-12 months on lees, the 2021 Chardonnay Ch is vivid gold-hued and has a rich, layered nose of ripe lemon curd, banana, white flowers, and a subtly spicy bouquet. This carries to a classy, balanced, elegant Chardonnay with plenty of texture, good acidity, and a clean finish.

Wine Advocate: 90 Points

Softly mineral with subdued fruit tones, the 2021 Ch Chardonnay offers aromas of yellow apples and citrus blossoms with hints of oak and rocky earth on the nose. Medium-bodied, the wine is a fantastic buy at this price, offering a balanced structure, succulent acidity and persistent flavors of citrus panna cotta and lemon pastry cream and a bright, succulent finish. Over half a million bottles were produced from 100% barrel-fermented Chardonnay that aged 10 months on the lees in 20% new French oak.
