Wine Reviews
A deep, complex and layered wine with salt, mineral and toast aromas. Creamy in texture with a full body. Rich yet balanced, offering Bosc pear, golden apple and lemon zest flavors. Long, lingering finish. Drink now or hold.
A nicely rich, suave and spicy white that blends luxurious poached apple and pear flavors with notes of marzipan, lemon meringue, toasted almonds, hazelnuts, brioche and butter. Full-bodied, broad in mouthfeel, well layered and plush.
All barrel fermented in about one third new oak, the wine stays in wood on the lees for 12 months. Made from the 35-year-old Haire vineyard in Carneros and the Cunat vineyard in Oak Knoll, the wine is silky smooth, medium-bodied, yet fresh and vibrant. Crisp green apples, white peaches and subtle oak spices on a balanced, lively frame
Tons of ripe orchard fruits, brioche, spicy wood, and subtle creamy nuances all emerge from the 2024 Chardonnay Napa Valley, giving it a classic Napa Valley Chardonnay style. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has a round, layered mouthfeel, terrific purity, and outstanding length. Aged 11 months in 33% new French oak sur lees, it reminds me a little of the older Beringer’s Reserve Chardonnays. It’s going to put a smile on your face and is a pleasure-bent, sexy Chardonnay that I’d gladly drink any time over the coming 2-4 years. Drink 2026-2030.
