Score 97/100 · Drink 2023-2033, Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate, Oct 2023

The 2013 Chardonnay Upper Barn is a stunning, mature Chardonnay from Alexander Valley with plenty of life ahead. Matured for 11 months in 49% new oak, it takes plenty of time in the glass to reveal dried apples, mixed nuts, mushroom paste, iodine and pastry scents. The medium-bodied palate is satiny, mouthwatering and loaded with honeyed flavors, and its savory notes of maturity haunt the long finish. 963 cases were made.

Lemon peel, white pepper, flowers and mint are all found in the 2013 Chardonnay Upper Barn. Next to the other wines in the range, the Upper Barn comes across as a bit compact, but it is quite pretty and expressive just the same. The Upper Barn emerges from one of the higher blocks on the property.
