Fess Parker, West Vineyard Chardonnay Sta. Rita Hills 2018

95 points Vinous
"The 2018 Chardonnay Parker West is laced with the essence of crushed rocks, lemon peel, white flowers and white pepper. This is an especially taut style, but there is also plenty of fruit depth to keep things in balance. This is such a gorgeous wine and also a terrific example of the style that comes so natural on the western edge of the Sta. Rita Hills."

Vinous Reverie Notes
100% Parker West Vineyard (Blocks 6 & 7) located in the Sta. Rita Hills. The Parker West vineyard is a dynamic site planted in sandy soils on a windswept hillside several miles from the cold Pacific Ocean. This Chardonnay offers up generous notes of golden delicious apples, pear, wet stone and hazelnut all backed by bright, refreshing acidity.
