The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like mushroom, mineral, lemon, lime, oak and cut green grass. It tastes like pineapple, bell pepper, grapefruit, vanilla, oak, cream, and cut green grass. The body is medium. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

Not sure why scores aren’t higher, but they’ll come around. These Chards need age so give at least 5yrs. (168 views) | | | Tasted by gharter on 2/22/2023 & rated 89 points: PnP. Pineapple, apple, lemon, peach, pear, citrus aromas. The acid is lower than earlier bottles. Pineapple, apple, peach, lemon, pear flavors. Very light oak, medium finish.

Similar flavors. Well balanced. (652 views) | | | Tasted by Daniel___Walsh on 7/3/2021 & rated 90 points: Pretty good Chardonnay, but nothing really out of the ordinary. (1344 views) | | | Tasted by markcic on 3/2/2021 & rated 87 points: I needed some white wine for cooking so I used a half bottle and had a glass. I cannot see how Vinous gave it a 93. It is nice, perhaps, everyday chardonnay. Nothing special at all. The palate is light, with hints of citrus and flowers. Perhaps I am just spoiled by Hobbs, Peter Michael and Aubert. (1423 views) | | | Tasted by CLE Rocks! on 2/10/2021 & rated 88 points: Honeysuckle yellow hue and ice water clear, the nose is funky with hint of barn straw and wet rock. The texture is creamy and well incorporated for a 2018. It drinks like a more mature wine. It’s rich on the palate offering some fresh cut white peach and honey drizzle. The longer you sip it the more it evolves in the glass. It will be a great crowd pleaser and should pair well with foods and soft cheese or on it’s own. Fire up some Carole King, pop the cork and enjoy. (1038 views) | | | Tasted by HolyBejeesus on 12/6/2020 & rated 92 points: It was a hit with the group of 4 who drank it. No one detected oak on the wine - we were sure it was unbaked as it didn't have that buttery characteristic so common with California chards. (1139 views) |

| Pride Mountain Vineyards Producer websiteChardonnay The Chardonnay GrapeUSAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Napa Valley Napa Valley Wineries and Wine (Napa Valley Vintners)Napa ValleySt. Helena |
