Product Overview

94 Points - Wine Advocate
"Opening to a nose of bright lemon and peach yogurt with hints of banana, the 2022 Chardonnay is fresh and citrus-laden. Medium-bodied and with 13.2% alcohol, the palate is fresh, balanced and spicy with succulent apple essence before swinging to show an elegant floral notion that finishes fresh and complex. This Chardonnay was barrel fermented and aged in 23% new French oak. Give it a try! Just under 70,000 bottles were filled." -AM, 12/29/23

93 Points - Vinous
"The 2022 Chardonnay is matured nine months in 300-liter French oak barrels, 24% new. It has a backward nose demanding just a little coaxing from the glass, revealing tempting lemon thyme, hazelnut and subtly smoky aromas. The palate is taut and fresh with a lovely, slightly waxy texture. The oak is nicely integrated, quite linear and tensile in style, with ample weight toward the poised finish. This is a classy Chardonnay from Hamilton Russell. 13.3% alcohol." -NM, Aug/2023

91 Points - Wine Spectator
"A well-knit white, with generous fruit flavors of Canary melon, yellow apple and tangerine enlivened by bright acidity and a subtle tang of salinity. Rich hints of green almond, pastry cream and pickled ginger accent the fruit profile and linger on the fresh finish. Drink now through 2030. 5,601 cases made." -AN, 7/29/24
