One of California's longest-lived white wines, this Chardonnay from cult classic Mount Eden is very floral in the nose with scents of honeysuckle and gardenia flowers. This wine is balanced and full of finesse on the palate with Mount Eden's usual firm acidity. The finish is long, subtle, and mineral-laced.

95/100 - Mount Eden's 2018 Chardonnay offers a fabulous interplay of richness and energy. A wine of linear intensity, the 2018 could use a few more years in bottle to be at its best, but it is super-impressive, even now, in what is very clearly the early going. Lemon confit, mint, orange peel, spice and light butter notes all build into the articulate, polished finish. This is such a classy wine. Give it a few years to come together. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous 

94/100 - The 2018 Chardonnay Estate admirably balances oak-influenced richness with the vibrancy and clarity this property is historically known for. The nose leads with intense aromas of caramel, butterscotch, citrus oil and pineapple rind balanced with a streak of herbal energy. The palate is weighty and forward but retains succulent, tangy acidity with great length on the finish. This should continue to develop further complexity in the cellar over the next decade. - Matthew Luczy, Wine Advocate 


Fine underlying acidity; fresh lemon and mineral flavours are backed up with hazelnut and anise.
The Mount Eden Chardonnay comes from vines propagated from a Burgundian selection.
The juice is barrel fermented; it is then cellared for two years before release.
This will be best enjoyed five to ten years after release.
This wine would be delicious with a crab salad.

Mount Eden Vineyards

Winery History
Mount Eden Vineyards is, without question, one of California’s most important and historic winemaking estates. Originally planted by legendary (not to mention maverick) winemaker Martin Ray back in the 1940s, Mount Eden has been witness to its fair share of joy, disaster and intrigue over the years.

Since 1981 things have settled down on the mountain, after winemaker Jeffrey Patterson... Read More >>
