Expert Reviews - Vintage 2023
Tasting Panel 91 Points | A creamy wash of toasted brioche settles on the palate as perky acidity livens up notes of lemon sorbet, white tea, and fresh melon. Wine Spectator 90 Points | Vibrant and expressive, with a terrific mix of nutmeg-scented pear, Fuji apple and peach flavors that are delicate and precise but not shy on concentration and generosity. Sleek, precise acidity and hints of lemon meringue linger on the finish.
Wine Enthusiast 89 Points | Broad aromas of pear, honeydew and cantaloupe draw the nose into this freshly styled bottling. There is ample tension to the palate, where those melon flavors are layered in light coconut and jasmine elements.
Winemaker Description
The 2023 Morning Fog Chardonnay bursts with aromatics of citrus and green apple complemented by hints of toasty oak and vanilla from barrel-aging. This wine is balanced by a lingering minerality and natural acidity to create a beautiful wine.

(Vintage 2022) 92 Points Tasting Panel | Nectarine, peach blossom, and chamomile generously spreads across the palate. Midpalate notes of papaya and gardenia develop into a tropical paradise, followed by a caress of vanilla custard n the balanced finish.
(Vintage 2022) 90 Points Wine Enthusiast | Lively aromas of jasmine and pineapple are tropical, yet show restraint on the nose of this bottling. Those tropical elements add flavors of coconut and plumeria on the palate, as the vibrant acidity causes the wine to dance across the tongue.
