This Duckhorn-owned brand has excelled at producing cool, coastal wines for quite a while, generally focused on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, and a little bit loose on detailed information about specific sources. That said, this lovely Chardonnay is everything lovely about deep west coast Chardonnay, it's fresh, lemony, with a bit of white peach, thyme, and all that is Chardonnay, lavish and silky on the palate, but without all of that oaky luggage. This is the future of California Chardonnay, and it's luscious, but not oaky, fresh, focused, and concentrated. (93 Points)
