Mouthwatering and vibrant, this chardonnay balances elegance and energy with a seamless through line from nose to finish. Notes of fresh-evergreen aromas open to mandarin orange edged with pithy lime and layers of subtle coastal brininess. On the palate, the citrus—expressed with hints of plushness—stands in dichotomy with a beautiful backbone of acidity, as a distinctive herbal character emerges at the core. Lovely layers of texture derived from flinty minerality expand into a pure and vibrant finish.

Wine Spectator: 93 Points
Lemon sorbet and orange sherbet, plus details of lemongrass, lemon verbena, and both fresh and dried ginger notes, show touches of saline and white tea on the long and detailed finish, with plenty of intensity and sleek, mouthwatering acidity that give this precision. Drink now through 2036.
Vinous: 91 Points
The 2024 Chardonnay (Sonoma Coast) is a terrific introduction to the range. Apricot, white flowers, mint, white pepper and tangerine oil are nicely pushed forward. The warmer season yielded an especially forward, open-knit Chardonnay. It's a style that works quite well at this level.
