- 93 Punkte James Suckling: Aromas of pureed apples, flowers and lemon grass follow through to a medium body with a brioche and light praline undertone to the fruit. Tangy acidity. Light caramel at the end. Drink now. Screw cap.
- 93 Punkte VINOUS, Josh Raynolds: (40 new French oak) Limpid yellow. A highly perfumed nose evokes fresh honeydew melon Meyer lemon pear nectar and white flowers and a smoky mineral nuance builds as the wine opens up. Sappy concentrated and incisive on the palate offering intense citrus and orchard fruit flavors and chamomile and saffron flourishes. A dusty mineral element adds vibrant lift and cut to the impressively long sharply delineated finish which leaves behind a suave floral note. 2021-2018
- JoS, verkostet im Februar 2025: Dieser Chardonnay aus der Premium Region Santa Lucia Highlands zeigt kurz nach dem Öffnen erste Noten von Reife, in Form von karamelligen Noten. Doch hinter diesem Schleier ist der Wein wunderbar stimmig, mit Aromen von gelben Früchten, Zitrusfrüchten, weißen Blüten strukturiert, dicht, feinmineralisch, hat Grip, Komplexität und auch einen langen, mineralisch-salzigen Abgang. Sehr gut! Nicht warten, jetzt trinken, auf dem Punkt. Burgunderglas (Zalto). Eher nicht karaffieren. 14,0 vol. Notizen auf dem Rücketikett: The Sleepy Hollow wineyard is one of the most significant vineyards in the Santa Lucia Highlands appellation. Owned by Talbott Vineyards, this expansive benchland vineyard is perched 13 miles from Monterey Bay and enjoys panoramic views of the Salinas Valley and beyond. Our deep sand and gravelly soils coupled with dramatic marine influences, increases hang time and provides the perfect conditions for growing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The wines from Sleepy Holoow are renowned for their intense varietal character, perfect acidity and richness of flavor. Enjoy. ;
