J. Lohr Description
This also comes in a 750 ML
92 Points James Suckling
Cooked apples, ripe pineapple, honeysuckle and hints of caramel on the nose. Medium- to full-bodied with a creamy texture. Generous and rich, with a fruity and slightly waxy aftertaste.
Producer Notes
The 2022 Riverstone exhibits enticing aromas of ripe citrus, white nectarine, and baking spices. The rich texture and balanced acidity on the palate from barrel aging sur lie offers flavors of ripe Meyer lemon, citrus cream, hazelnut, cocoa, and a hint of oak on the long finish.
This classic, cool-climate Chardonnay can be enjoyed as an aperitif with a triple cream brie or Humboldt Fog goat cheese; it is equally at home accompanying a fresh seafood risotto, mussels in white wine sauce, or chicken piccata.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
Though the production level of this wine is rather massive, the quality does not suffer. Aromas of lemon chiffon cake and wet stone are engaging on the nose. The palate starts with a tantalizing acidity and stony texture, giving edge to the richer cream and vanilla-meringue flavors that arise by the finish.
