James Suckling, 94 Points 

“A fresh and zesty chardonnay with sliced cooked-apple, lemon and light vanilla character. It’s medium-to full-bodied with a creamy and bright finish. Hints of yogurt and apple pie at the end with energetic acidity. Drink now.” 

Vinous, 92 Points 

"The 2019 Chardonnay Grace Benoist Ranch is a blend taken from five blocks on the ranch, all on lighter soils that confer elegance and freshness. Citrus peel, mint and white flowers are some of the many aromas and flavors that give this expressive Chardonnay so much appeal." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"The Etude estate Chardonnay represents all that is memorable about Carneros. Vibrant yet elegant, it’s a showcase of pineapple upside-down cake, green apple, and peach cobbler. Medium-bodied with beautiful minerality and a solid backbone of acidity, this is an exceptional offering from a smaller-yielding vintage. Simply delicious." 

Alcohol: 13.6%
