Wine Enthusiast, 93 Points 

"This small-production white comes from older vines, the grapes barrel-fermented into a powerfully fruit-driven and minerally wine. Gravenstein apple, Meyer lemon and a touch of tropical papaya mingle around a core of freshness and structure." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"This is exactly the type of wine we wanted to produce for MARITANA VINEYARDS. It is sleek and refined – nice freshness but also very complex flavors. I always think that Russian River Valley Chardonnay, of which Dutton Ranch is probably the archetype, is at its best when it shows off the pretty, floral, honeysuckle and narcissus and lavender to go with the Asian-pear, ripe-apple and gingerbread notes."  

Alcohol: 14%
