Maggy Hawk Description
Focused, fresh and bright. The 2019 Skycrest Vineyard Chardonnay offers fresh yellow peach, apricot and pear fruit notes alongside subtle tarragon and lemon blossom. A minerality runs through the palate balancing the wine along with a laser-focused acidity that highlights the incredible texture and produces an exceptionally long finish.
Vinous Media: 94 Points
The 2019 Chardonnay Skycrest is a knockout. Bright, floral and energetic, the 2019 is wonderfully detailed and nuanced. Lemon confit, almond, sage, mint and dried flowers lend striking complexity. The 2019 is wonderfully vibrant and sculpted, with exceptional balance, the 2019 is an absolute winner.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
Subtle almond, dried apple and butter flavors fill up this medium-bodied, smooth-textured wine, giving it a mellow complexity along with good, juicy cider notes and balancing acidity. Aged 16 months in 30% new oak barrels.
Jeb Dunnuck: 91 Points
Aged 15 months (as are the red wines) in 30% new French oak, the nose of the 2019 Chardonnay Skycrest Vineyard has some depth, with toasted brioche, green apple skin, and lemon curd. The palate is soft while maintaining a core of acidity and energy, and it is floral with fresh white flowers.
