91 points Robert Parker: "My favorite of the generic series is the 2007 Chardonnay Carneros. Vibrant acidity and minerality (characteristics of this vintage) are present in this beautifully fruity effort, as well as notes of smoky hazelnuts, buttered citrus, and loads of freshness and definition. It should drink nicely for three years." (02/10) 91 points Wine & Spirits: "The scent of oyster shells comes up from underneath the dense, pale fruit flavors of this wine, a white fruit jam relieved by the mineral smokiness. Rich and full, this is ready for roast veal." (10/09) 90 points from Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar: "Green-gold. Sexy aromas of pineapple, melon and white peach are lifted by a floral note. Deep pit fruit and honeydew flavors coat the palate and are braced by tangy minerals. Gains weight and sweetness on the long, juicy finish. I'd drink this suave wine now, for its exuberant fruit." (May/Jun '09) From Wine Spectator: A fresh, fruity style, with a beam of ripe green apple, pear and spice presented in a sleek, elegant frame that keeps the focus on the fruit. Drink now through 2012. 2,500 cases made." (Jun. 30, 2009)
