99pts James Suckling

Amazing aromas of ginger, honeysuckle and pear with hints of flint. Jasmine. Full-bodied yet linear and bright with complex flavors of fresh apple, honey and white flowers. Just a hint of vanilla. Pretty mind blowing. Dried citrus at the end. Asian fruit. pH 3.3. Drink or hold.

The 2024 Chardonnay Eastside Vineyard comes from a site planted by Ulises Valdez in 2008. Green apple, lime candy, white flowers, and refined stony earth define this focused and elegant wine. Though among the warmer sites in the portfolio, it possesses a distinctly Burgundian sensibility, emphasizing purity, energy, and mineral precision over sheer power. Medium to full-bodied, it delivers impressive refinement and persistence. Drink 2026-2040.

The 2024 Chardonnay Eastside Vineyard is a potent, tightly wound wine. It is going to need at least a few years to unwind. Citrus confit, white flowers, tangerine oil, crushed rocks, dried herbs and mint are finely sketched. Brisk acids pull it all together on the close. There's terrific energy here. Montrachet clone Chardonnay on Riparia Gloire rootstock planted on rocky soils is a magical combination.
