Very ripe and rich in the modern style, a fruit-forward Chardonnay with pineapple, lemon and lime pie, buttered toast and spice flavors that are accented with crisp Central Coast acidity. Drink now. ——S.H.(12/31/2010)—— 88

Made in the white Burgundy style, this Chardonnay features enormously ripe flavors complexed with oak and lees aging. It offers a blast of pineapple tart, pear jam, creme brulee, vanilla custard, buttered toast and cinnamon spice flavors, accented by high, crisp acidity. A blend of some of the best vineyards Pessagno accesses.——S.H.(3/1/2012)—— 93

Marked by very ripe fruit that flirts with sweetness, this Chard nonetheless is dry. It also has crisp, mouthwatering acidity for balance. Shows complex flavors of pineapples, Meyer lemon custard, buttered toast and honey, with a bracing minerality.——S.H.(2/1/2009)—— 92

This is a very low-production, best-of-barrels selection by the winemaker. It’s an extremely tight young wine, austere and almost searing in acidity, with a yeasty taste from sur lies aging. If you’re looking for opulent, immediately accessible Chardonnay, this isn’t for you. But the wine has tantalizing hints of grilled pineapples and nectarines, and the powerful structure suggests cellaring. Stash this away for a couple of years.——S.H.(9/1/2008)—— 93
