2013 PAHLMEYER "SONOMA COAST" CHARDONNAY From The Wine Spectator, "An expansive style, with lively acidity. Plump, ripe and buttery, this coats the palate with a rich array of fig, melon and tropical tangerine flavors, adding a floral, jasmine scent, enlivened by a nervy edge of acidity..." 93 Points From Antonio Galloni's Vinous, "Pahlmeyer's 2013 Chardonnay is gorgeous and the Russian River fruit speaks with notable eloquence. Orange blossom, butter, new French oak, apricot pit, mint and spice notes abound. The 2013 is quite extroverted in style, but less overt than in years past. The new Francois Freres barrels are evident but also very nicely integrated." 93 Points
