2022 Rombauer Proprietor Selection Chardonnay
93 Points - Wine Enthusiast: Bold and buttery in aroma, this full-bodied, creamy-textured wine is made in much smaller quantities than the regular Rombauer Chardonnay. It highlights vanilla, pineapple and candied apple on the palate while a soft, viscous texture leaves a sweet impression on the finish.
93 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: A blend of lots from Buchli and Home Ranch, plus another bit or two, the 2022 Chardonnay Proprietor Selection boasts subtle toast, crushed stone and pencil shaving nuances set against a backdrop of pineapple and white peach. Bigger, lusher and creamier than the single-vineyard bottlings, it's full-bodied yet finishes long and crisp.
92 Points - Wine Spectator: There's plenty to admire in this supple and creamy version, with flavors of salted caramelcovered apple and grilled peach, plus notes of orange sherbet, dried pineapple, shortbread, nougat and toasted hazelnut. A fresh thread of acidity keeps everything in focus and the flavors juicy. Drink now. 3,467 cases made.
