92-94 points Robert Parker: "The 2009 Chardonnay Mon Plaisir (1,875 cases produced; 15.1% alcohol) offers exotic pineapple and mango fruit along with a medium to full-bodied style." (02/11) 93 points Wine Spectator: "This displays a rich, enticing mix of green fig, white peach, apple, melon and smoky oak flavors, leading to a full body. Intense and concentrated, this ends with a smoky, figlike aftertaste. Drink now through 2018." (06/11) 92 points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar: "Green-tinged yellow. Pear, fig and tangerine on the pungent nose. Pliant flavors of orchard fruits, spices and honeysuckle are nicely framed and lifted by a citrus element. Finishes with honey and citrus notes and excellent clarity; this is showing more heft than the La Carriere right now." (May/June 11)
