95VM - "Erica Landon and Ken Pahlow’s wide range of Chardonnays have developed a loyal and growing following among fans of Old World-influenced Chardonnays, and for good reason.

| | | | "Erica Landon and Ken Pahlow’s wide range of Chardonnays have developed a loyal and growing following among fans of Old World-influenced Chardonnays, and for good reason. Even in hot vintages like 2018 the wines manage to express an elegant, balanced character and while around 25% new oak comes into play, it takes a back seat to fruit and floral expressions. I’ve had excellent luck with aging the Walter Scott Chardonnays, which should come as no surprise given their balance."

"Pale yellow-gold. Fresh honeydew melon, Meyer lemon, pear nectar, oyster shell and toasted brioche on the deeply perfumed, mineral-driven nose. Juicy and expressive on the palate, offering densely packed yet energetic citrus and orchard fruit and sweet butter flavors plus a nervy suggestion of gingery spices. Shows impressive energy and mineral drive on the strikingly long, focused finish, which features a suave floral quality and resonating smokiness. Like all of the Walter Scott Chardonnays, this wine is not at all about fruit, in the best sense. 40% new oak."
