Notes Presse
« The 2023 Chardonnay Estate Reserve is magnificent. Tangerine peel, hazelnut, spice, menthol, baked apple tart and pastry are some of the many nuances that open in the glass. The Reserve offers a captivating mix of vibrancy and textural viscosity. Creamy, resonant contours wrap up the plush close. There’s striking richness and mind-blowing overall balance to match a long finish that reverberates for an eternity. The Reserve is a blend of sections within three blocks on the property planted mostly with variations of older Wente selections that are distinguished by longer hang times. [...] What a wine! »
Vinous, Antonio Galloni
« Wow. Incredible substance and heart in this spellbinding debut wine. White flowers, flint and pristine fruit on the nose, reminiscent of Ramonet white Burgundy. Full-bodied and so deep, almost endless. It’s solidly balanced, framed with such density but never heavy. A reserve from the best sections of the vineyard. Needs four or five years to come together. Excellent debut vintage. [...] »

« Fragrant notes of honey-drizzled pears, Golden Delicious apples, and spice cake languorously drift from the glass of the 2023 Chardonnay Estate Reserve, leading to hints of baker's yeast, sea spray, and chamomile. The medium to full-bodied palate has a fabulously silky texture and incredible tension framing the tightly wound orchard fruit and mineral layers, finishing very long, chalky, and with tantalizing citrus sparks. 878 cases were made. »
