“The white draws you in with its intensely sensual aromas of lemon/lime tart, jasmine and chamomile. Mouth-filling flavors enter the light as this chard shines with notes of pineapple upside-down cake, toffee, pear and rainier cherries. The beautiful acidity balances it all out: this is the best yet for Gehricke." 95 Points
The Tasting Panel, September 2018
“It should be noted that it was the Sebastiani family, operating out of its facility just a stone's throw from the Sonoma town square, that put Sonoma County chardonnay on the map, at a time when hardly anyone in the U.S. was drinking chardonnay that hadn't been made in Burgundy. That's important because this wine is from August Sebastiani, and it's only fitting that it should remind you of the old days, when chardonnay exhibited delicious notes of lemon creme, apple and pear that you could actually taste because the flavors weren't masked by the intemperate use of oak. The oak treatment here is restrained, adding rather than subtracting, and certainly not masking the gorgeous fruit.” 95 Points
