      Reviews:

      • Wine Advocate: The 2016 Chardonnay Estate spent 11 months in 38% new French oak. It has an open nose of ripe peach, apricot, toast, gunflint and pie crust with dried chamomile and honey-drizzled apple slices. Medium-bodied, it offers concentrated stone fruit and honey-nut character in the mouth, with seamless acidity and a long, textured finish. 1,100 cases produced.
      • Jeb Dunnuck: Coming 80% from Sta. Rita Hills, with some from Solomon Hills, the 2016 Chardonnay Estate is a juicy, racy Chardonnay that has terrific purity and elegance. Citrus, hints of white flowers, brioche and spiced pear notes all emerge from this charming, elegant Chardonnay. It has a terrific saltiness and a more rounded texture than the 2015.
