93 points Erin Brooks (Wine Advocate): "The 2018 Chardonnay Russian River Valley has aromas of citrus peel, quince and almonds with a unique, super-spicy undercurrent. The medium-bodied palate offers intense, ripe fruits in a seamless, silky package, and it finishes long and lush. Drink: 2021-2026. (Jun 2021)"
92 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2018 Chardonnay (Russian River Valley) is another stellar wine in this range. It offers up an exotic mélange of apricot, matchstick, butter and spice, all in a juicy style that captures the essence of the Russian River Valley. The 2018 is quite forward, yet it has plenty of energy and persistence too. Drink: 2022-2028. (Jan 2021)"
91 points Wine Spectator: "Fresh-cut apple and green pear flavors show savory richness. Minerally midpalate, with notes of lemongrass on the crunchy finish. Drink now through 2024. (7/31/21)"
