Score 88/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2007
Hazy gold. Leesy, buttery orange and white peach aromas, with a bright peppery lift. Round and supple, with ripe pit fruit and tangerine flavors, gentle acidity and a suggestion of sweet butter on the back. A distinctly warm, easygoing chardonnay, finishing with good length.
