94 points Lisa Perrotti-Brown (The Wine Independent): "The 2021 Estate Chardonnay prances out with out-going notes of grapefruit, green guava, and fresh pineapple with hints of coriander seed and brioche. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers a refreshing backbone to counter the intense citrus and tropical fruit layers, finishing long. Drink: 2023-2028. (Apr 2023)"
94 points Wine Spectator: "Impressive for the generous, plump flavors and the restraint and elegance of the candied ginger peel, briny preserved lemon, peppery white flower and buttery peach pastry flavors on a plush frame. Reveals a juicy thread of acidity. Drink now. 1,638 cases made. (7/31/23)"
92-94 points Joe Czerwinski (Wine Advocate): "Tasted as a tank sample prior to bottling, the barrel-fermented 2021 Chardonnay Hudson Vineyard displays a full-bodied, rich, custardy mouthfeel that easily carries the bold flavors of pineapple, white peach and citrus. It's a blend of several blocks and sees approximately 60% new French oak. Drink: 2023-2030. (Mar 2023)"
