Winemaker Notes
The 2020 West Block reveals a vintage of uncommon weight, complexity and power coupled with a clear sense of place. Aromas of orange peel and Meyer lemon along with complex brioche notes are artfully framed by French oak. Flavors of wildflower honey, lemon cream éclairs, and fragrant linden flower unfold on the palate and lead to a lingering finish. While accessible now, this wine will cellar for ten years or more.
This wine shows at its best with full-flavored foods. Mouth-watering pairings include lobster ravioli or lobster roll with aioli sauce, fresh sea bass in lemon beurre blanc, Veal Milanese, or veal loin with a morel cream sauce. Gnocchi with sage and butter is an excellent vegetarian option.
Critical Acclaim

Jeb Dunnuck
The 2020 Chardonnay West Block brings a bit more power and intensity, with candied ginger, ripe stone fruit, and honeysuckle. The palate also brings more density as well as a sun-ripened feel, with preserved pear and toasted oak spice.

Wine Spectator
Impressive for its creamy profile, with elegant shadings of nutmeg and toasted brioche to complement the poached pear, yellow apple and peach notes, showing plenty of restraint. Drink now.
