The 2023 Chardonnay (Santa Barbara County) is a total stunner. Bright, aromatic and vibrant, the 2023 is lights-out, brilliantly marrying fruit intensity and energy. Apricot, mint and white flowers abound. This is a stunning wine for the price and for its production of around 40,000 cases. $23.00 (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, September 2024)

A sunbeam in a glass — peach, citrus, and a whisper of mango drift over crisp minerality, all tied together with the faintest touch of oak. It’s so balanced and layered I almost feel unworthy of drinking it. This wine carries itself like someone twice its age: wise, graceful, and self-assured, yet still somehow able to charm and energize a teenager, hence why i seem to like it. I give myself another 10 years before i can fully appreciate this.

Green apple, lemon fruit, more tart, mineral driven from the diatomaceous soil (powdery fossils) gives crushed rocks on the palate

Pale color. Good mouth feel. Smells of fresia and lime. Very good flavor apricot and butter. Sharp bite/alcoholic finish not for me. Looking for something smoother (lower alc? 14.5%)

Drinking a really cold glass with Salmon & Swiss Chard dinner. Tonight I taste a mild bit of olive fruitiness!
