95 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2020 Durant Vineyard bottling of chardonnay from Seth Long is from vines that were planted in 1999 and 2000, so they are really starting to come into their prime today. The wine comes in at 13.2 percent octane this year and was aged in forty percent new oak for eleven and a half months prior to assemblage in stainless steel for its second winter and bottling in the following spring. The bouquet is simply stunning this year, wafting from the glass in a refined blend of apple, pear, salty minerality, apple blossoms, fresh almond and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, focused and beautifully precise, with zesty acids, a superb core of fruit, great mineral drive and balance and a long, complex and vibrant finish. This is truly stunning. 2022-2050. (Mar/Apr 2022)"
