Young but the wine is so on point. By far the best American Chardonnay on the market. Crazy acidity, so much citrus, tropicals including passion fruit, just amazing 🤩

Honey lemon, fresh lime, a bit of mineral and sea on the nose, on the palate it’s got oak, butter, ripe lemons, blood oranges, nice acidity rush, watery finish. Refreshing and not heavy, good balance of oak and freshness.

A tasting of nine Rhys Chardonnays spanning 2007-2019. Great acid, still so fresh, Burg-like.

Jul 3rd, 2021This wine just keeps getting better and better with time. Lemon, orange marmalade, green apples, medium plus acidity, slight reduction, stunning wine!

Jul 14th, 2020Truly outstanding reductive, white flower, honey blossom, citrus, tropical notes galore and medium plus acidity. This bottle was consumed extremely quickly and I can only imagine what a few years or more of n the bottle will do to this wine. This is definitely American Grand Cru!

Aug 13th, 2019Still very young, reminiscent of a grand cru Chablis. 🍏 green tropical notes, lemon curd, white flowers, sea salt salinity and medium plus acidity. I feel the best example of American Chardonnay
