Accolades

100 PTS. Owen Bargreen
“Sourced from this electric site farmed by Stonestreet, the 2021 ‘Ghost Cat’ Upper Barn offers dense pineapple and mango on the nose alongside citrus rind and baking spice laced pastry crust on the nose. The palate is utterly ethereal, lush, round and generous as this comes off absolutely weightless. It is amongst the finest new world Chardonnays that I have ever tasted. Only 79 cases produced of this ethereal beauty. Drink 2025–2035.”
