Their 96 out of Magnum in 2015 at the property is still my favorite Chardonnay. This is not as good yet, but delicious and a show stopper. Happy Birthday to me!

The 2018 Gaia & Rey offers up a whole range of tropical and orchard fruit flavors, showing an extra kick of creaminess that is surprising given the cool vintage and the decision to fully block the malolactic fermentation. Passion fruit, pastry, spice and a kick of well-judged oak build nicely in the glass. The 2018 finishes with lovely tension and energy. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, September 2021)
