ROBERT PARKER'S WINE ADVOCATE 97 POINTS - "The 2018 Chardonnay Upper Barn Vineyard was aged for 10 months in French oak, 46% new. It has a very classy nose of ripe peaches, fresh yellow apples and allspice followed by fresh ginger, cashew and acacia honey plus a waft of sea spray. Full-bodied, rich, satiny and with fantastic intensity and tension, it finishes very long and chalky. YUM! 600 cases were made."
JEB DUNNUCK 95+ POINTS - "The flagship Chardonnay, the 2018 Chardonnay Upper Barn Vineyard comes from a high elevation block and spent 11 months in 46% new French oak. It shows the more rounded, supple style of the vintage and has beautiful depth and richness, a seamless texture, and layered notes of white currants, white flowers, crushed stone, and subtle brioche. Its oak is nicely integrated, and this rich, powerful, flawlessly balanced Chardonnay should continue drinking nicely for 7-8 years or more."
ANTONIO GALLONI 95 POINTS - "The 2018 Chardonnay Upper Barn Vineyard is a tremendous wine. It offers a stunning combination of textural richness, vibrancy and energy. All the best elements of the Stonestreet house style come through in a Chardonnay that is incredibly distinctive. "
