IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS

Wine Enthusiast 90 points - Richly barrel fermented, this wine shares its caramelized toasty oak character with sultry, creamy ripe apple, pear and melon. Lushly layered, it goes spicy on the finish in a dash of piquant nutmeg..November/2017

Ultimate Beverage Challenge 97 points - 2018 Ultimate Wine Challenge (Tried and True Award)(Great Value)(Chairman’s Trophy) - Toasted brioche and a distinct chalky note brings one almost to Burgundy, but the power and concentration of Sonoma fruit bring us back to California. Ripe cider apples and honeydew play the canvas with hues of white flower, sweet cream butter, and fresh vanilla bean..June/2018

Jeb Dunnuck 89 points - Orchard fruits, spice, guava, and white flowers notes all emerge from the 2015 Chardonnay Chalk Hill Estate Vineyards, and it’s a clean, medium-bodied, nicely balanced effort. At 22 bucks, you get a nicely balanced, fresh, incredibly easy-drinking Chardonnay that has real character..June/2018
