94 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2022 Chardonnay Estate Cuvée comes from a mix of the Pisoni and Soberanes vineyards and spent 12 months in 30% new oak. It doesn't have the overt power or complexity of the Soberanes Vineyard, yet it brings a vibrant, pure, beautifully balanced style in its ripe stone fruits, toasted bread, white flowers, and blanched almond-like aromas and flavors. I love its overall profile, and it has nothing out of place; its acidity is nicely integrated, and it has outstanding length. It's another brilliant 2022 to drink over the coming 4-6 years. Drink: 2024-2030. (8/15/24)"

93 points Billy Norris (Vinous): "The 2022 Chardonnay Estate Cuvée is a blend of fruit from Soberanes and Pisoni—some of the very first vines Gary Pisoni ever planted are in this blend, including a block of 40-year-old vines. Lively but rounded, the 2022 opens with notes of sweet peach, apricot, chamomile and toasted almond. Aged for a year in 30% new French oak, its gentle curves are so attractive. Lively acids keep things bright all the way through, and I dig the little lick of salinity on the finish. Effortlessly balanced. Drink: 2024-2034. (Aug 2024)"
