94 POINTS - JEB DUNNUCK
Beautiful stone fruits, white flowers, toasted brioche, and subtle background oak all give way to a medium-bodied, vibrant, incredibly pure Chardonnay with a good spine of acidity and outstanding length.

Fort Ross Vineyard was selected to produce this Chardonnay to commemorate the 1812-2012 Bicentennial of the old Russian Settlement of Fort Ross on the Sonoma Coast. 

Bursting from the glass with floral and slight savory notes of red roses, dried orange peel, and Darjeeling tea. The palate is layered with red fruits framed by finely constructed elegant tannins.

Cranberries and blackberries, with the high-toned lift of roses. It's enriched by the tannins of new oak, big in scale and lasting in flavor.
