Wine Enthusiast, 95 Points 

"Creaminess in the texture and deftly layered flavors give this extraordinary wine an almost irresistible attraction. So light but so rich at the same time, the wine offers vanilla, butter, poached pears and hints of caramel and toast, while the finish is delicious and lingering. Great for a special occasion." 

James Suckling, 93 Points 

"This is a fresh, bright chardonnay with aromas of salted butter, thyme, greengage plums, peaches and kiwi fruit. Medium to full body. Sleek and elegant. Builds in intensity, with a deliciously creamy finish. Drink or hold." 

Jeb Dunnuck, 92 Points 

"A bright straw color, the 2020 Chardonnay Sonoma Coast is classic and inviting with aromas of preserved lemon, honeysuckle, green apple, and custard. Pure and ripe on the palate, this full-bodied white offers balanced refreshment, with wonderful length and tension in the notes of lime blossom that linger on the finish with great energy. A wonderful offering from Tony Lombardi, it’s available now or drink 2023-2028." 

Wine Spectator, 92 Points 

"Packs lip-smacking intensity, with Meyer lemon, mango puree and generous sumo orange notes, along with lemon verbena, clary sage and ginger accents on a fresh, vibrant frame. Reveals a dash of sea salt that lingers on the finish. Drink now. 123 cases made." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"The 2020 Chardonnay shows beautiful aromas of layered green apple, lemon-lime citrus, orange blossom, honeysuckle and just a hint of vanilla.  This 2020 Sonoma Coast Chardonnay is star bright and offers layers of lifted and vibrant peach, pear, and tangerine flavors on the palate. The finish gradually turnscrisp with a final wash of mouthwatering natural acidity."
