Chardonnay
Mayacamas Vineyards
U.S.A.
> California
> Napa Valley
Fragrant jasmine and lemongrass, underpinned by notes of Meyer Lemon, white peach, and Bartlett pear; complex layers, introducing bergamot and cardamom nuances. A gentle oaky touch enhances without overpowering; a memorable long finish, mingling orchard fruit with a mineral-driven salinity. Sourced from estate, mountain-top vineyards on Mount Veeder.
95/100 - Rich, phenolic wine that shows just how distinctive this site is. Rich and layered, with striking intensity, the 2021 is lights out today. Lemon oil, almond, dried flowers, and earthy undertones open beautifully with aeration. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous
92+/100 - The 2021 Chardonnay is made in a crisp, restrained style, spending 12 months in a mix of different barrels, up to 500 litres in volume. Less than 10% are new, and malolactic fermentation is blocked to retain freshness. Melon, pear and citrus notes come through on the nose and medium-bodied palate, while the finish is moderately silky in texture yet zesty, powered by bright lemon-lime notes. - Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate
94/100 - Clean, razor-sharp chardonnay with chalky lemons, fresh pineapple, dried tangerine peel, flint and dried herbs. Hints of praline, too. Medium- to full-bodied, crisp and tense with vivid acidity coming through. Chalky minerality. Very dynamic and characterful. Drink or hold. - James Suckling
Beautifully balanced with great freshness, minerality, and candied lemon aromas.
Mayacamas’s Chardonnay comes from the oldest vines on the estate grown high up on the mountainside.
Classic winemaking techniques are used; wines are aged in French oak for a year before bottling.
The wines are delicious now, but best drunk after a few years.
This is delicious on its own, but particularly good when paired with crab cakes.
