Wine Enthusiast, 94 points: Fragrant and delicious, this opens with heady aromas of white spring flower, citrus and tropical fruit. Vibrant and tangy, the savory palate doles out juicy grapefruit, white peach and lemon drop before a saline mineral...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: A dense, layered white with tannin tension in the palate, which gives it definition and texture. Plenty of subtle lemon, stone and salty undertones. It’s full and racy with uniqueness that makes it really attractive...

Vinous, 96 points: The 2019 Chardonnay Trout Gulch is fabulous. Palpable energy and tension drive a core of crushed rocks, lemon confit, mint and white flowers. Intensely saline, tense notes really bristle in this magnificent Santa Cruz...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: Sliced green-apple and melon aromas with lychees and citrus fruit follow through to a medium body with plenty of fruit in the center palate and a layered, mineral finish. Light notes of almond paste. A little tight now...

MW Bob Campbell, 95 points: Lovely wine! An appealing core of sweet fruit with white peach, nectarine and a lovely saline-mineral lift supported by gentle acidity. A totally seductive, fruit-forward wine with an ethereal texture.

jebdunnuck.com, 100 points: Moving to the three single vineyard Hermitage Blancs, these are all perfect wines yet offer distinct characters. The 2019 Ermitage De L’Orée comes from more limestone soils in the Les Murets lieu-dit, on the eastern side...

Wine Enthusiast, 93 points: A beautiful wine from a great vintage, aromas of sea spray, apple flesh and a touch of melon form the delicate nose of this precise Chardonnay. The palate is light and somewhat linear on entry, but then waves of ripe...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: The deep brown clay soils of the Haut-Lieu plateau provide the typical fruitiness and freshness wonderfully in Huet's 2019 Vouvray Le Haut-Lieu Sec. Ripe pear, tangerine and orange fruits with notes of lemon grass and...

Decanter, 91 points: From the steep slopes of the middle Nahe, this bright expression of dry Riesling comes from 15- to 30-year-old vines grown on slate soils. It's an elegant wine from start to finish, with expressive and forward aromas of...

jebdunnuck.com, 98 points: The 2019 Condrieu La Doriane is another tremendous effort from this estate that does everything right. Reminding me slightly of the 2015 with its power and richness, it still has plenty of freshness in its apricot, ripe...

jebdunnuck.com, 96 points: (94-96 points) I've always loved the Chardonnay from this team, and their 2019 Chardonnay Red Shoulder Ranch has that classic richer, full-bodied style while staying balanced and light on its feet. Buttered lemons...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: This is a punchy and chiseled Coddington with attractive peach and citrus-fruit aromas, as well as hazelnuts and white stones. The palate has a very focused, pure shape with a central spine of intense peach flavor, crisp...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The 2019 Sancerre opens with a clear and highly attractive ripe peach aroma with coolish flint stone notes. Full-bodied and intense, with lingering salinity and sustainable structure, this is an already accessible...

Wine Enthusiast, 97 points: Made by winemaker Braiden Albrecht and consulting winemaker Andy Erickson, this beautifully layered and complex white is impressive in its scope and its profound, profuse flavors of peach, pineapple and pear. The fruit...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: Welcome to a virgin forest of herbs! Tightly wound with a lot of drive and some healthy tannins, giving the finish some real structure. Serious minerality at the slightly austere finish. From organically grown grapes with...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: A very tight, composed white, showing dried-apple, lemon and spiced-pear character with heather and honeysuckle. It’s full-bodied with lots of lively fruit and a vivid finish. Structured. Super wine at this quality level...

jamessuckling.com, 98 points: At first, a biscuity note that reminds me of Champagne, but then a delicate and cool, peachy aroma comes through. I wanted to write that this has stunning concentration and brilliance, but actually it’s just like a laser...

Vinous, 95 points: The 2019 Chardonnay Cahill Lane Vineyard is a magical wine. Bright and fresh, but with the natural richness of the Wente clone, the Cahill Lane dazzles right out of the gate. Light tropical accents, tangerine peel, spice...
