Critical Acclaim

RP94 Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate 30th Oct 2014

"The 2012 Chardonnay Home Block Spring Ridge Vineyard comes from the highest-elevation plot, with the vines lying between 805-840 feet above sea level. Like the other Chardonnays, it’s aged all in French oak, with 25% being new. Rich and layered, with notions of lemon curd, ripe peach and citrus giving way to more honeyed minerality with air, this full-bodied, layered and decadently styled Chardonnay offers tons of fruit and texture, yet stays pure, lively and clean. Drink it over the coming 4–5 years." (94 pts.)

Where It's From

California

When it comes to US wine production, California is King. California wines account for almost 90% of all wines produced in the United States each year, and is home to the most celebrated vineyards and producers in the country. California is probably best known for its world-famous Cabernets and Chardonnays, many of which hail from its two most-acclaimed AVAs, Napa Valley and Sonoma County. Other prominent grapes used in California wines include Merlot, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah, and Zinfandel (which California made popular).

United States

The United States now ranks fourth in the world in wine production behind, France, Italy, and Spain. While about 90% of that wine is produced in California, other states like Oregon, New York, and Washington are establishing themselves as prime spots for wine production, as well. Just about any variety of wine can be found in production somewhere in the United States.
