James Suckling
Reviewed May 2019A very fluid wine with bright, pear and peach aromas with an edge of almond praline and spiced biscuits. The palate has a balanced and measured feel with layered and smoothly constructed texture as well as a long, caressing finish.

Wine Advocate
The 2017 Chardonnay Evenstad Reserve is made up of fruit from the domaine's various single-vineyard Chardonnay sites. The vines are all Dijon clones planted at relatively high elevation on Jory soils. Aged 14 months in 33% new French oak, it has lovely scents of poached pear, elderflower, quince, river stone and hints of nutmeg and sweet spice with notions of lime peel and honeyed white peaches. The palate is light to medium-bodied with great texture, intense flavor layers, lip-smacking acidity and a long, fresh, mineral-accented finish. Pure class. (EB)

Wine Enthusiast
This delicious wine is packed with a rich mix of tropical fruits, lush caramel and lightly toasted nuts. It fires on all cylinders as far as what most folks look for in a high-end Chardonnay, with an added burst of lively acidity. Never heavy, it continues through to a long finish of elegant, graceful, seamless flavors. (PG)

Polished and elegantly opulent, with pear and apple flavors, accented by spice notes and finishing on a lingering steely detail. (TF, Web Only-2019)
