Look, I know people dig this style, but it’s just not what I look for in Chardonnay. No doubt on the lees, very creamy with an intense texture. Getting that buttery vibe. I’m an outlier, but just not my thing.

sleek and pristine. just a gorgeous wine and falls in that thin slot between new and old worlds. a very beautiful expression from Lompoc.

A great streak of acidity, though it felt less prominent vs the last bottle I had. Zesty lemon flavors and mouthwatering sea breeze notes.

So crisp! And on the finish there’s delicious cream. I really enjoyed this and would buy it again for sure.

Nice but I think that I prefer the Santa Barbara. This is a bit more on the buttery / leesy side than what I mostly like. Still good minerality and acid, but just a smidge less present than I’d prefer.

So consistently good. Lemon, citrus notes, followed by wet stones and fresh acidity and minerality. I need more of this in my life!

Clean, pure, laser focused acidity. Really Burgundian in style with the restraint the winemakers show. Enjoy every bottle I have even more, each time I drink it.
