94 Points - Wine Spectator
"A wine of depth and presence, this Chardonnay offers an array of intriguing flavors, from apple and stony mineral to lemon verbena and blanched almond. Takes on richness toward the steely finish. Drink now through 2023. 838 cases made." -TF, 8/31/22

"The aromas offer notes of almond skin, lemon pith, lees and clarified butter. Lightly toasty stone fruit and tropical flavors follow on the full feeling palate that brings stone-fruit flavors. Bright, lemony acidity runs throughout. Decant or wait until at least 2025." -SS, 7/1/22

"The 2019 Chardonnay La Source opens with touches of matchstick that give way to apricot, beeswax, dried hay and singular herbal and spice undertones. The medium-bodied palate opens bright and minerally before expanding its honey-nut flavors, and it has a long, elegant finish." -EB, 7/3/24

"The 2019 Chardonnay La Source is lifted and perfumed with a delicate bouquet of chamomile, white flowers, sweet spice and yellow apples. It’s more energetic on the palate, vividly ripe in style with juicy acidity to balance. Hints of gingery spice add contrast toward the close. The 2019 finishes fresh and medium in length, leaving a gentle tension and a slightly grassy note as zests of lime and a floral resonance slowly fade. Of note, the 2019 includes fruit from vines planted in 2015, which explains its more forward character." -EG, May/2024
