Jennifer Havers rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Lovely! Aromas of pear, apple, and warm spices. Luscious and buttery, but still balanced with some medium acidity, and nice bright fruit. Very versatile! Enjoy as a patio sipper, scallops, shrimp, roasted herbed chicken or roasted vegetables.
Andrea Shapiro rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

This well-balanced California Chardonnay features notes of: poached pears, baked cinnamon apples, light citrus, apricots, toasty oak, tropical banana and a faint hint toffee. There’s also a mild, unique hint of spice happening in the background. Acidity is well balanced with a creamy mouthfeel and finish. Enjoyable on its own but will also pair exquisitely with garlic buttered shrimp and scallops. 90 points - tasted May 2018
Jane Staples rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

A rich, succulent California chard, giving aromas and flavours of peach, green apple, slight citrus and vanilla in a creamy, luscious texture. Very elegant and good to the last drop! A great Mother's Day gift.

Cherie Cole rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Rich and round Chardonnay, presenting notes of ripe peach, green apple and subtle notes of rosemary. Would pair well with Rosemary chicken. Tasted May 06, 2018.
Stephen Andrews reviewed this wine as follows:

Tasted April 13th 2018. Colour light to medium gold, clear. Legs medium. Aromas and flavours of baked apple and pear, vanilla and hint of oak. Taste, dry, medium mouthfeel, mouthwatering minus, buttery, short finish. This Chardonnay reflects the land where it is grown. Easy drinking pair with buttery dishes. I had butter pan fried salmon and shrimp with Jasmine rice and roast rich heirloom carrots. My meal tasted better with the wine then without. Certainly good value. Everyday food wine.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
