Lemon-Chevre Agnolotti, Garden Chive Crema, Shaved Radish with 2022 Brewer-Clifton, Chardonnay, Santa Rita Hills 94 pts Jeb Dunnuck, 92 pts Vinous Media, 92 pts Wine Advocate “Ripe golden fruits, honeyed minerality, a kiss of iodine, crème brûlée, and white flower notes all emerge from the appellation 2022 Chardonnay Sta. Rita Hills, and as always, it competes with the best out there, offering medium to full-bodied richness, a round, layered mouthfeel, integrated acidity, and a great finish. Sourced from the 3D, Machado, Hapgood, and Perilune vineyards, it will evolve for 15 years in cold cellars” – JD
Striped Sea Bass, Piemontese Hazelnut, Creamed Vidalias with 2022 Brewer-Clifton, Chardonnay, “3D” Santa Rita Hills 97 pts Jeb Dunnuck, 94 pts Vinous Media “The 2022 Chardonnay 3D comes from a sandy, 10-acre vineyard in the Sta. Rita Hills and was brought up all in neutral oak. Its medium gold hue is followed by a ripe, exotic perfume of honeyed stone fruits, orange blossom, chalk, flower oil, and brioche-like nuances. This beauty is medium to full-bodied, concentrated, and incredibly textured on the palate, with nicely integrated acidity, terrific mid-palate depth, and a finish that won't quit. Don't miss this beauty.” - JD
Pastured Pork Shoulder, Porcini Conserva, Sweet Potato with 2023 Brewer-Clifton, Pinot Noir, Santa Rita Hills 94 pts Jeb Dunnuck, 92 pts Vinous Media, 91 pts Wine Advocate “The 2022 Pinot Noir Sta. Rita Hills is incredibly expressive and open, with a great nose of spiced red fruits, iodine, spring flowers, rose, and baking spices. This carries to a medium to full-bodied Pinot Noir with a round, layered, elegant mouthfeel, rock-solid acidity, and a great finish. As always, it’s a terrific value in top-notch Pinot Noir and will have 10-15 years of longevity.” - JD

Sour cherries, black pepper, singed herbs, wood char, graphite and iron flavors. Medium-bodied, racy with acidity and nicely chewy in tannins. Drink or hold.” -JS |
