Magnum - 2021 Chardonnay - Zotovich Vineyard, Sta. Rita Hills
94 points - Matt Kettmann, Wine Enthusiast
Classic mineral driven aromatics with citrus, and green melon. Big texture and mouthfeel. Brighter than normal acidity, this wine shows best on the dinner table with something fatty for the acid to cut through. -Matt Brady, Winemaker

"The 2021 Chardonnay Zotovich Vineyard is a bright and focused from start to finish. Crushed rocks, lime, salt and white pepper are all beautifully delineated in this vibrant, intensely saline Chardonnay. All the elements are so nicely put together. This is another wonderfully translucent wine in the range." -Antonio Galloni

"This bottling sports a very pithy, citrus-rind-driven nose, with wet rock and tight apple flesh aromas also apparent. The palate is loaded with a rocky mineralitty, but also packed with citrus spray, Asian pear and mandarin flesh flavors." -Matt Kettmann
