93 Antonio Galloni - Vinous

"The 2016 Chardonnay Dierberg Vineyard is translucent and lifted, with all the energy that makes Santa Maria Chardonnays so compelling. Lemon peel, white flowers, mint and crushed rocks are beautifully delineated. Saline, brisk and vibrant, the Dierberg hits all the right notes."

92+ William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"Opening in the glass with notes of pear, yellow orchard fruit and honeycomb, the 2016 Chardonnay Dierberg Vineyard is a tight-knit, medium-bodied and acid-driven wine, with a lovely core of concentrated fruit lurking behind what are currently quite prominent structuring elements. It's a vivid, tensile wine which will need two or three years in the cellar before it begins to unwind."
