2015 White Wine

Wine Enthusiast, 94 points: New management, farming and winemaking practices at this producer, including a focus on smaller production, are remarkably on display in this delicious white. Golden pear and crunchy apple provide an unctuous...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The 2015 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard shows the fatness and succulence this vintage seems to have produced routinely at top terroirs. Terrific honeysuckle, pineapple, peach and caramelized citrus are all present in this...

Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 93 points: 93+ (60% new oak; 5,600 cases produced): Bright lemon-yellow. Fully ripe but exhilaratingly sappy aromas of tropical fruits, lemon oil, fig and honeysuckle. Very sexy, complex and smooth on the palate, with expressive...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: The dry 2015 Riesling Kinheimer Hubertuslay Auslese ** (White Capsule) is from very fine slate soils that give power to the wines (not in terms of alcohol, though). Cool and flinty on the nose, this is a very powerful...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 98 points: 98+ The 2015 Riesling Kinheimer Rosenberg Auslese *** (Golden Capsule) displays clear, intense and fresh aromas of ripe pineapples, lemon fruits and crushed stones, indicating gorgeous purity. Crystalline and highly...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: (91-94 points) The 2015 season resulted in tiny clusters and small berries with production levels off by a minimum of 25%. The following 2015s will be bottled unfined and unfiltered. The 2015 Chardonnay Cahill Lane is...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: (96+) The 2015 Chardonnay Wayfarer Vineyard has an intense nose of pineapple, guava and ginger with honeysuckle, marzipan, cashews and brioche. The medium-bodied palate is incredibly taut for such a gregarious nose with...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: Deep and rich candied-citrus nose with hints of hazelnuts and fresh herbs. Serious richness and concentration, yet so vibrant and crisp through the very long, mineral finish. Delicious now, but with a bright future ahead...

jamessuckling.com, 93 points: Very attractive honeycomb and lemon-peel nose of some complexity, then there’s a stunning balance of racy acidity and delicate candied lemon fruit on the palate. The finish is very long, clean and intense. Great now but...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 97 points: The 2015 Pündericher Marienburg Riesling Falkenlay opens clear, pure, fresh and mineral, with concentrated mirabelle aromas on the nose. Fermented for 18 months and aged for another three months on the lees, this was...

View From The Cellar, 97 points: The 2015 Morstein Auslese is another beautiful wine...The bouquet is still stunning, jumping from the glass in a blend of peach, yellow plum, honeycomb, a lovely base of limestone soil and a floral topnote. On the palate...

jebdunnuck.com, 97 points: 97+ The 2015 Chardonnay Estate Vineyard is another steely, concentrated, almost austere wine from the estate that’s going to demand cellaring. Dried herbs, citrus, white flowers, and salty minerality give way to a medium...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: Superb richness of fruit with quite an exotic character of peaches and mangoes on the nose and palate. It delivered brightly-cut acidity that really sizzles on the finish. Beautiful richness and freshness here. Drink now...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: The 2015 Riesling Ürziger Würzgarten Spätlese (Golden Capsule) opens with a very clear and aromatic white stone fruit aroma intermixed with clear and smoky aromas. Sweet, lush and intense, this is a concentrated, already...
