2017 Ferren Chardonnay Sonoma Coast - 92 PTS - VINOUS

vinous logo"The 2017 Chardonnay (Sonoma Coast) is a huge overachiever in its peer group. Bold, luscious and rich, the 2017 has so much to offer. Soft contours and plush fruit give the 2017 tons of immediacy. Lemon confit, white flowers, mint and ripe orchard fruit meld into the creamy, super-expressive finish. - Antonio Galloni”

wine spectator 94 pts"The salted butter, lemon bar, orange blossom and ripe melon flavors at the core of this white show generous purity and focus, with fresh acidity and with a hint of Himalayan salt on the long, expressive finish. The texture is smooth and lush, practically melting in your mouth. Drink now through 2031. -M.W.”

2020 Ferren Chardonnay Sonoma Coast - 94 PTS - WS

wine spectator 94 pts"Seamless, showing round lemon curd, ripe peach, melon and baked apple flavors, with hints of brown sugar, spices and salted butter. Before the flavors settle, this reveals a freshness from the mouthwatering acidity and savory minerality that turns up the intensity and focus, creating more verve on the long, expressive finish. Drink now. -M.W.”

2021 Ferren Chardonnay Sonoma Coast - 94 PTS - JD

jeb dunnuck logo 250"Bright medium yellow/green-hued, the 2021 Chardonnay Sonoma Coast has a gorgeous, fresh nose of bright flint, delicate oak spice, crystalline starfruit, fresh white flowers, and lime blossoms. Medium-bodied, it’s lovely on the palate, with a fantastic chalky texture and a great finish that gently tapers away. It’s long on the palate and is going to offer a wide drinking window over the coming 8-10 years. - Audrey FRICK”

wine spectator 94 pts"Bright, focused and energetic, with quince, pear tart, tangerine and Honeycrisp apple notes on a sleek and juicy frame. Accents of almond blossoms and crystalline and candied citrus peel join a note of salted, preserved lemon and a whiff of lemon balm on the long finish, never losing that sense of energy. Drink now. 462 cases made.—M.W.”
