Score 89/100 · Drink 2018-2024, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2018
The 2016 Chardonnay Marena is a terrific introduction to the Ceritas wines. Gracious and light on its feet, the 2016 displays lovely energy in citrus, white flower and chalky flavors. I very much like the translucence and delicacy of the Marena. The persistent, clean finish makes it nearly impossible to resist a second taste. This is the sort of wine that is opened and finished in short order.
