The 2019 Chardonnay Woolsey Road Vineyard has singular scents of warm peaches and burnt lemon with touches of meringue, beeswax, saline and flint. The medium-bodied palate is energetic and tense at this youthful stage, its satiny texture opposed by tangy freshness, and it finishes long and flinty. It will be long lived in bottle and will benefit from 3-5 more years under cork. 624 cases were made. - EB

From a vineyard owned by the Martinelli family and planted to Old Wente cuttings from Hyde Vineyard, this wine opens in a quiet nose of apple blossom and stone. Creamy, with substance and structure, it is floral, earthy and citrusy, with a taste of Key lime. VIRGINIE BOONE

The Woolsey Road Vineyard property is owned by the Martinelli family, but the Chardonnay was planted exclusively for Ramey with old Wente cuttings from the Hyde Vineyard of Carneros. The 2019 Chardonnay Woolsey Road Vineyard was aged for 20 months in 20% new French oak. It is lifted with delicate white floral aromas, flinty smoke, and fresh herbs. The palate is energetic and persistent, with pithy lemon citrus and stony earth. Allow several years in cellar to unwind and drink 2025-2035.
