98+ points. The 2014 Chardonnay Cuvee Agustina Richard Dinner Vineyard is a little mute at the moment with ripe peaches, exotic spices and ginger over a tropical core of pineapples and guava, with wafts of brioche and aniseed. The palate is full-on rich and buxom, with a little cedar peeking through the densely packed tropical fruits and savory layers, supported by a lively backbone and finishing epically with minerals.

A layered and rich chardonnay with soft texture and suppleness. Turns to lime and phenolic energy. Full body, round and juicy. Flashy style. Drink now. May 2017, www.jamessuckling.com

From a site on Sonoma Mountain, the 2014 Chardonnay Cuvée Agustina Richard Dinner Vineyard expresses all the signatures of the Paul Hobbs style. Ample and creamy, with a real sense of mountain structure, the Agustina possesses striking depth and intensity from the naturally low yields on this site. Dried pear, brioche, sage and wild flowers shape this deep, layered Chardonnay. Mar 2017, www.vinous.com, Drink: 2017-2022
