Wine Advocate
Composed entirely of estate fruit, the 2023 Chardonnay Sta. Rita Hills is an exotic, floral and honeyed expression of the vintage. Supple, seamless and polished on the palate, it melds a rich, caramelized texture with an upright saline spine that carries through to the polished, dense yet lifted finish. Despite the unabashed power on display, there is exceptional purity and precision that keep its classy opulence in check.

The 2023 Chardonnay (Sta. Rita Hills) is a gorgeous introduction to this range. Entry-level only in price, it's a serious wine in every way. Orange confit, toasted spices and ripe peach fruit expand into a beautifully textural white with great focus and persistence. (BN)
