Reviewed September 2016More fresh and vibrant, the 2015 Chardonnay Santa Lucia Highlands has beautiful white peach, pineapple and tropical characteristics in a medium-bodied, pure, clean and classy package. It's more focused and pure than the 2014 was at this stage, and is a juicy, lively, impeccably made white to buy a case of for near term drinking. (JD)

Vinous
Green-tinged straw. Fresh pear and melon aromas show very good clarity and pick up a floral element with air. Silky and precise, offering sharply focused orchard and citrus fruit flavors given lift and cut by a zesty mineral nuance. The floral note comes back strong on a fragrant, persistent finish that leaves behind subtle pear nectar and lees notes. (JD)

Brought up all in neutral barrel (this is the first vintage where it's all in barrel) and from a handful of vineyards in the Santa Lucia Highlands, the 2015 Chardonnay offers impressive, exotic notes of orange blossom, hints of pineapple, and melon in a lively, pure and layered, style. It's a smoking value to drink over the coming year. Drink 2017-2019. (JD)
