"This has bright aromas of fresh lemon pastry. Peaches and freshly baked pastry flavors on the palate. Vivid, fresh finish. Good concentration here."
Wine Advocate, 91 Points
"There is a savory overall sensation in the 2018 Ritual Chardonnay that I like very much. Like most of the wines, it feels more a wine from a place than a variety; it is serious, balanced and fresh, with the salinity of the granite soils of Casablanca Valley. It has contained ripeness and very integrated, almost imperceptible oak."
Vinous, 91 Points
"The 2020 Chardonnay Ritual from Casablanca spent a winter in concrete vats (20%) and new French oak 400-liter barrels (20%). Yellow with a golden shimmer. The aromas combine pineapple with notes of cigar box and ginger cookies. Taut with a malic feel, the palate remains ample and friendly with a creamy mouthfeel and lingering finish."
Alcohol: 13.5%
