Score 95/100 · Drink 2006-2014, Robert Parker, Dec 2006

The stunning 2003 Chardonnay Zio Tony Ranch has a gorgeously complex nose of honeysuckle, buttered peaches, lemon oil as well as earth and hazelnut. Full-bodied, powerful, yet with good acidity, this is a beauty to drink over the next 5-8 years.

Score 94/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2006

Pale yellow-green color. Explosive nose of flowers, caramel and marzipan, plus an exotic honeycomb character. Wonderfully sweet, round and forward, with compelling flavors of honey, spice, hay and nuts. Very long and sweet on the aftertaste.
