Reviews and Ratings

Jason Solanki rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Toasty oak with lots apple and butter aromas with replays on palate. Some melon flavours also shine through the vanilla on the long finish. Very new world style of Chardonnay. Could be aged at least another 3 years. Tasted Sept/2012.
Lesley Quinn - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

This wine starts out with great lemon and melon notes but finishes with a tasty little butterscotch snap. It does a great job of balancing the fruit with the oak, and is delicious with coconut shrimp.
Community Reviewer reviewed this wine as follows:

This classic Sonoma County Chardonnay displays bright aromas of lemon cream, mango and notes of toasted hazelnut. The generous fruit flavors of pear and melon on the palate provide a rich mouthfeel which is nicely balanced by cleansing acidity. This wine has a subtle elegance with a lingering finish.
