Vinous: 91 points
Green-gold. Lees-accented Meyer lemon, quince and pear aromas are brightened by dusty minerality and honeysuckle. At once silky and focused, offering intense orchard fruit and sweet butter qualities accented by anise and ginger nuances. Shows excellent clarity and energy on the finish, showing nervy mineral and spice qualities. This has to be one of the greatest chardonnay values in the market, from anywhere.
