2013 Chardonnay Wine

View From The Cellar, 91 points: 91+ The 2013 Puligny villages is excellent, wafting from the glass in a refined blend of apple, white peach, a lovely base of limestone, orange zest and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and exudes...

Burghound, 91 points: (BH89-91 points) A slightly riper and more complex nose is composed by essence of pear, white peach and dried flowers. There is more volume as well as mid-palate concentration to the medium-bodied and palate coating...

Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 93 points: The 2013 Chardonnay offers a super-intriguing interplay of the vivid, crystalline purity that is such a signature of the appellation, along with soft contours that give the wine much of its welcoming personality. Scents...

Burghound, 92 points: (BH89-92 points) A hint of sulfur does not materially detract from the ripe and fresh nose that is comprised by notes of apple, acacia blossom and pear scents. There is a lovely underlying tension to the well-detailed and...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: 94+ Absolutely sensational, the 2013 Chardonnay Isobel comes exclusively from the 32-year-old vines of the Charles Heintz Vineyard. Barrel-fermented and aged 13 months on its lees, then four months in tank, this wine...

Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 90 points: Mondavi's 2013 Chardonnay Reserve is bright, finely cut and focused throughout. Lemon peel, jasmine and white pepper are some of the signatures. Drink this chiseled, energetic Chardonnay over the next few years. Partial...

View From The Cellar, 90 points: (90+) The 2013 Chassagne villages from the Fontaine family is excellent, wafting from the glass in a complex and vibrant blend of apple, pear, spring flowers, a refined base of chalky soil tones, a touch of vanillin oak...

Burghound, 93 points: (BH91-93 points) Strong notes of reduction and sulfur render this unreadable at present. Otherwise though there is a lovely sense of both freshness and vibrancy to the saline, stony and refined middle weight...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: Aromas of white peaches, lemons and gunpowder. Full body, very tight and focused. Its broad palate closes to a tight fruit finish. Fantastic wine.

Burghound, 91 points: (BH88-91 points) This also exhibits just a whisper of exotic fruit elements on the wonderfully fresh, cool and elegant aromas of floral, citrus and wet stone nuances. There is really lovely delineation and vibrancy to...

Burghound, 92 points: An expressive and slightly smoky nose offers up cool notes of citrus zest, white flower, pear and apple scents. There is a lovely sense of verve to the racy and strikingly intense middle weight flavors that possess good...

Burghound, 93 points: (BH90-93 points) A whisper of exotic fruit adds breath to the very fresh dried yellow orchard fruit, acacia blossom and discreetly spicy nose. As one would reasonably expect this is notably bigger, richer and more...

Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 94 points: (AG92-94 points) Orange peel, smoke, spices, mint and apricot pit flesh out in the 2013 Chardonnay Camp Meeting Ridge Vineyard. Bold and textured in its flavors but classically mid-weight in style, the 2013 captures a...
