Wine Advocate, 92 Points

“The 2021 Fundamental Chardonnay features scents of quince, apricot, green herbs and baker’s yeast. The medium-bodied palate balances savory beeswax and apple character with bright, citrusy acidity and finishes with a touch of texture that will help this pair with dishes from pasta to chicken.”

Jeb Dunnuck, 92 Points

“Another great value, the 2021 Chardonnay has terrific purity in its aromas and flavors of tropical fruits, white flowers, citrus oil, and honeysuckle. It’s beautifully textured, medium to full-bodied, and opulent on the palate, with good concentration and a level of sexiness and mouthfeel that makes you believe it costs three to four times its going rate.”

Winemaker Notes:

“With one of the coolest vintages on record. This wine shows a distinct minerality on the nose. Once you taste it you will get loads of traditional chardonnay flavors like apple, lemon, tropical fruits and a pinch of buttery oak. Its such a fun wine to drink because it covers all of the bases of texture and acidity.”
