Notes | |||
"This profound and powerful Chardonnay exhibits a rich, complex tintensity that can only be found in unfiltered wines. The grapes are predominantly grown in the Carneros region where bay breezes and morning fog combine to create the cooler climate ideal for growing Chardonnay rich with concentrated flavors." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Pure and creamy nose with some toasted hazelnut to the lemons and nectarines. Lightly briny on the palate, with a fine, mineral touch to the long, creamy finish. Drink now or hold." —James Suckling "Newton's 2020 Chardonnay Unfiltered was saved from the Glass Fire by virtue of already being in the winery's underground caves. As usual, it's gently toasty, with notes of hazelnut, peach, melon and citrus. Medium to full-bodied but crisp and zesty, there's an attractive yin-yang of buttered popcorn and lime zest on the long finish." —Wine Advocate "The 2020 Chardonnay shows good intensity on the nose, where grilled walnut and touches of smoke infuse the lemon zest and Granny Smith apple scents. The palate is very well balanced with fine depth and good weight and presence. Dried honey and orange peel mingle with a touch of bitter lemon toward the finish. This should age well in bottle." —Vinous |
