Expert Reviews - Vintage 2021
The Wine Advocate 94 Points | The 2021 Chardonnay Cascadia from tank has pretty aromas of honey, allspice and roasted almonds that complement a core of peach and quince fruit. The medium-bodied palate is satiny and expansive with a dynamic interplay of textural breadth and energetic acidity, and it offers layered flavors on the finish.

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2021
The Wine Advocate 94 Points | The 2021 Chardonnay Cascadia from tank has pretty aromas of honey, allspice and roasted almonds that complement a core of peach and quince fruit. The medium-bodied palate is satiny and expansive with a dynamic interplay of textural breadth and energetic acidity, and it offers layered flavors on the finish.
Jeb Dunnuck 94 Points | The 2021 Chardonnay Cascadia is refined and elegant, with notes of pure white flowers, lemon curd, and white peach. Medium to full-bodied, with a silky mouthfeel and driven by citrus, it offers notes of tangerine as well as orange sherbet and has a great texture and a long finish. It’s long on the palate, with a decadent twist that’s hard to resist.
The Wine Spectator 91 Points | Polished and sleekly layered, with honeydew, pear and spice flavors that build structure toward the handsome finish. Drink now through 2026. 220 cases made.
