95 points Wine Enthusiast: "[$50 list] Both agile and relaxed, this well-balanced, vibrant and concentrated wine carries layers of crisp apple, pastry crust and lemon curd on snappy acidity that complements a fairly rich texture and medium body. Its creamy-tangy finish lingers a long time. Alcohol 13.5%. (Jul 2023)"
94 points/'Highly Recommended,' & '#27 Top 200 Wines of 2023' Wine Spectator: "[$50 list] This powerful version offers mouthwatering lemon curd, lime blossom and mandarin orange flavors that show notes of fresh-grated ginger and lemon verbena. Sea salt minerality gains momentum on the finish, where grace notes of toasted green tea, citrus zest and white pepper linger. Drink now through 2030. (7/31/23)"
92 points Audrey Frick (JebDunnuck.com): "[$50 list] The 2021 Chardonnay Russian River Valley takes on a little more ripe fruit and roundness, with ripe yellow apple, chamomile, and melon rind. It has a more rounded mouthfeel and takes on fuller body, with a supple, silky smooth texture to its notes of ripe pear, fresh earth, and a touch of almond. Dink it over the next 5-6 years.
