91 Points Erin Brooks, Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2021 Chardonnay Willamette Valley has savory scents of honey, nuts, toasted meringue and spice accenting a core of peach and quince paste.

Gran Moraine
2013 Chardonnay Yamhill-Carlton
91 Points Erin Brooks, Robert Parker Wine Advocate

2013 was fairly warm and dry, and growers expected an early harvest. But a powerful storm in September brought 10 inches of rain. Luckily, the season ended with more warm, dry weather in October. Despite the year's challenges, the 2013 Chardonnay Yamhill-Carlton is maturing gracefully. The nose is defined by struck flint, porcini powder and charcuterie, while the palate is surprisingly youthful. Still offering energetic, citrusy fruit, it gains depth and savoriness

91 Points Audrey Frick, JebDunnuck.com

Coming from the West Sonoma Coast, the 2022 Pinot Noir Sesacape Vineyard is from a late-ripening site with sandy soils, located next to Cobb’s Coastlands Vineyard, just west of Occidental. This is the second vintage for this wine, which was aged for 10 months in 20% new French oak.

Linear and fresh, it offers fine tannins and a clean, salty, juicy finish. It's quite charming now and will continue to offer a lot of pleasure over the next 5-7 years.
