Score 94/100 · Drink 2020-2030, Jeb Dunnuck, May 2020
Starting with the Chardonnay, there are three Russian River releases and one Sonoma Coast. The 2017 Chardonnay Quail Hill Vineyard comes from a site in the Russian River and spent 14 months in 39% new French oak. Lots of poached pear, peaches, orange blossom, and spice all emerge from the glass, and it's rich yet also fresh, with a good spine of acidity. It's beautifully done and is going to drink well for a decade.

Complex aromas of lightly buttered popcorn and grilled peaches make for a compelling wine. This has terrific depth and density to the palate that really impresses, combining bold texture and flavor.
