Smith-Madrone are one of the last true vanguards of 'Old Napa.' Founded in 1978 and run to this day by brothers Stu and Charles Smith, their estate high up on Spring Mountain is a callback to the days of California wine before the arrival of tech billionaires. Long-term champions of sustainable agriculture, the duo continue to produce wine in much the same way they always have.

Their Chardonnay is a simply breathtaking white wine, far removed from the 'buttery' stereotype and alive with candied citrus fruit, nutty flavours and electrifying freshness.

94/100 - The 2019 Chardonnay is a wild, exotic wine. Apricot, truffle, white flowers, tangerine peel, hazelnut, acacia and lightly honeyed notes lend notable complexity. What a treat it is to taste a fine, aged Chardonnay with this much complexity. Readers should expect a savory, phenolic Chardonnay that is more about structure rather than forward fruit. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous
