From a site in the Santa Maria Valley brought up in 22% new French oak, the 2016 Chardonnay Sierra Madre Vineyard offers more minerality as well as an obvious salinity in its orchard fruits, crushed rocks, poached pear, and spice-driven aromas and flavors. Deep, rich, and medium to full-bodied, it’s certainly another brilliant Chardonnay from this estate.

The 2016 Chardonnay Sierra Madre Vineyard is gracious, airy and very delicate. Orchard fruit, mint and floral notes are all layered in a Chardonnay that encapsulates the essence of Santa Maria Valley in its understated class. (AG)

Generous aromas of oak and pecan meet with seared lemon peel, caramelized white peach and sea salt on the lavish and delicious nose of this bottling. The palate is oaky and toasty yet made dynamic by ripe lemon, pan-seared apple and clove-dust flavors, all cut by strong acidity. (MK)

The 2016 Chardonnay Sierra Madre Vineyard opens with a perfume of flowers, buttered popcorn and toast over a core of ripe citrus and tree fruits. Medium to full-bodied, it gives lots of toasty/creamy fruits in the mouth, with good freshness and a long, buttery finish. 308 cases produced. (EB)
