Decanter, 97 points: 2016 was an outstanding year, with an early, fine summer with daily sea breezes. Slightly above-average January and February temperatures were offset by a welcome 90mm of January rain. Markedly floral, there's a white...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: (96+Points) This Chardonnay comes from a single Wente selection clone planted on the Estate Vineyard on Los Carneros Avenue. The wine undergoes a very long, gentle pressing before being 100% barrel fermented with native...
View From The Cellar, 94 points: The 2000 Lanson “Noble Cuvée” Blanc de Blancs is drinking beautifully and at its apogee at age eighteen. The bouquet shows lovely secondary layers of complexity in its mix of pear, delicious apple, wheat toast, chalky...
jamessuckling.com, 94 points: Super fresh aromas of lemon and lime zest, leading to fresh white peaches. This has a very impressive sense of purity and clarity that follows to the fresh, linear palate. Impressively refined chardonnay. Drink now.
jamessuckling.com, 94 points: Impressive, flinty complexity with yellow citrus fruit and lighter peach aromas, leading to a palate that has a punchy array of vibrant peach flavor and a taut citrus thread to close. Complex and polished chardonnay here...
Vinous, 92 points: The NV Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs 1er Cru is absolutely gorgeous. The Extra Brut style works so well, something that surprises me given how angular and severe some of the wines have been in the past here. No matter, all...
jamessuckling.com, 98 points: This is really amazing with an exotic dried-fruit character of pineapple and mangoes. Full-bodied, rich and fruity with cream, pie-crust and caramel character. Crazy chardonnay with a little Jura style and some flor...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The 2016 Chardonnay Cahill Lane gives up loads of honeyed peaches and ripe apple notes with touches of nutmeg, baking bread and marzipan. Medium to full-bodied, it fills the palate with layer upon layer of bread, nut and...
jebdunnuck.com, 95 points: While the reds get all the attention from this great estate, they also make a sensational Chardonnay. Their 2017 Chardonnay Red Shoulder Ranch comes from the cooler Carneros region, located in the southern part of Napa...
jamessuckling.com, 98 points: A tight and beautiful white with a dense palate of beautiful, ripe lemons and apples. Layered and refined with phenolic tension. Complex yeast and hints of oak and flor. Full body. Great length. 80 per cent flor-growth in...
Wine Spectator, 91 points: A plump version, boasting melon, peach, cinnamon and toasted spice flavors. Balanced by lively acidity, with the spice and peach elements echoing on the lingering finish. Drink now through 2023. 200 cases imported. — BS
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: I love the lively and energetic profile of the 2014 L'Etoile Cuvée Spéciale, which is a sharper wine than the 2015 but also less developed and fresher. It feels very young and undeveloped, with bright acidity, strong...
jamessuckling.com, 98 points: Aromas of cooked pears, apples, lemons and crushed stones. Salty, too. Full and deep with a solid core of fruit and a bright and citric finish. Very minerally and bright. Starts off slowly and then takes off. Drink or hold.
jamessuckling.com, 96 points: The top-tier chardonnay here is very much in command and has a super rich and very concentrated feel with deep, ripe-peach and mango aromas with grilled-grapefruit notes, too. The palate is very rich and ripe, offering a...

I have found that a lot of the wines available at JJ Buckley are either not available at my local vendors or are at a much lower price. The service over the years has always been exemplary. I will continue to make purchases from JJ Buckley.
