Decanter, 96 points: Lovely, expressive notes of juicy grapefruit and ripe pear, toast and oak spice make an appearance but the cask ageing is very well integrated. The overall impression is of a consummate balance between richness and...
Wine Enthusiast, 95 points: This robust, full-bodied white holds its weight and pedigree remarkably well, offering an intensely flavored, richly layered experience that seamlessly provides freshness along the way. Apple, cinnamon and nutmeg are...
Decanter, 91 points: Pleasing lemon citrus with delicate grassy notes; creamy and lush with a lovely mineral freshness and a firm finish.
Wine Enthusiast, 94 points: The gentle nose on this wine combines the slight flintiness of reduction with ethereal dried yarrow. The palate is multi-dimensional with yeast, lemon, chalk and saltiness. Subtle texture and scented freshness are...
jebdunnuck.com, 95 points: 95+ I was able to taste two Chardonnays from Failla. The 2018 Chardonnay Estate Vineyard comes from an estate vineyard in the Fort Ross-Seaview AVA and spent 11 months in 10% new French oak. This medium gold-hued 2018 has...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: The 2018 Chardonnay Cuvée Alyce opens slowly to lovely aromas of warm peaches and apricots with accents of toast, roasted almonds and honey. The medium-bodied palate is silky, super concentrated, layered and fresh, cut...
jebdunnuck.com, 94 points: Starting with the Chardonnays, the 2018 Chardonnay Sta. Rita Hills is a winner and is ideal for readers looking to understand the Sta. Rita Hills as well as the style of the wines at Brewer-Clifton. Medium gold, with a...
jebdunnuck.com, 95 points: Just as good, the 2018 Chardonnay Platt Vineyard, from a site in the Sonoma Coast, saw a similar élevage, spending 11 months in 15% new French oak. Rocking white peach, white currants, citrus, and floral notes all emerge...
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy, 93 points: (90-93 points) Lovely pale lemon, much more nose here than the straight Meursault, fresh lemon and verbena, significant oak in the background, with excellent length.
jamessuckling.com, 92 points: A delicious, bright and fruity white with sliced-apple and honey character. Medium body. Crisp acidity to the lovely fruit. Subtle and clean. Drink now. Screw cap.
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy, 92 points: Pale but attractive colour. There is a good weight of fruit to the nose. This is discreet up front but builds towards the back very nicely. There is just a little youthful bitterness at the back and good length.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: 96+ The 2018 Chardonnay Beresini Vineyard Cuvee Torchiana sashays out of the glass with knockout scents of honey-drizzled white peaches, pineapple upside-down cake, grapefruit and ginger cake with hints of cashews and...
jebdunnuck.com, 97 points: From the cooler Carneros region of Napa Valley, the 2018 Goldberg Variations Hyde Vineyard is another Chardonnay that’s up with the crème de la crème of California. Lots of ripe peach and nectarine fruits, subtle tropical...
