James Suckling: 97 Points
A brilliant, balanced and terrifically fresh white that's alive with tangy apricots and ripe peaches on a full body. Accents of toast, minerals, flint and almonds. Elegant, energized, appetizing and deep. Quite long and delicious in the finish.
Wine Advocate: 95 Points
The 2023 Chardonnay Dutton Ranch has kaleidoscopic scents of quince and peach, lily and lilac, meringue and roasted almonds. The full-bodied palate is highly concentrated, pairing ripe stone fruit with shimmery saline character. It’s balanced by racy acidity and has a very long, energetic finish. It should be long lived in the cellar.
Vinous: 95 Points
The 2023 Chardonnay Dutton Ranch is a gorgeous, open-knit offering. The Dutton is one of the most approachable wines in this range. Soft contours wrap around a core of apricot, dried flowers, chamomile, spice hazelnut and spice. Light tropical inflections and subtle mineral underpinnings extend the effortless, gracious finish. The 2023 is an especially fine Dutton Ranch. If I owned all the 2023s, the Dutton is the wine I would open first.
