Score 91/100 · Drink 2018, Jeb Dunnuck, Oct 2018

The 2016 Chardonnay is another smoking value from this label that’s made with declassified grapes from the Jonata and The Hilt team. Its light gold color is followed by a vibrant array of spiced citrus, white flowers, and salty mineral-like aromas and flavors. It's juicy, beautifully pure, and impeccably balanced, and well worth your time and money.

The Paring's 2016 Chardonnay is a delicious, budget-friendly wine with plenty of Santa Barbara freshness and personality. Lemon confit, orchard fruit and floral notes give the wine a lovely sense of brightness.
