2021 Chardonnay
92 Points - Jeb Dunnuck
A ripe golden color, the 2021 Chardonnay Fort Ross Vineyard is fresh and ripe with aromatics of salted pineapple, chamomile, and Meyer lemon. This full-bodied white is ripe with peach, buttered citrus, and fresh flowers and brings forward a rounded feel while maintaining good lift. Drink it over the next few years. July 2023

Light to medium lemon core with a watery rim in the glass, the 2021 Fort Ross Vineyard Chardonnay impresses with delectable notes of white tea, Golden Delicious apples, crushed cinnamon sticks, and white flowers. Rich fruit and spice notes lead to a long-lasting finish with gobs of mouthwatering acidity. It spent 11 months in French oak, with 30% being new, which gives a lovely, spicy quality to the wine
