Mayacamas Mt. Veeder Napa Chardonnay 2020 Bottle size: 750ml

‘The 2020 Chardonnay marries textural richness and energy, all in grand style. Lemon confit, white flowers and light tropical accents lend quite a bit of character. There is striking creaminess and oiliness to the feel, even though the malolactic fermentation was fully blocked. The 2020 is just gorgeous in the way it conveys mountain energy while avoiding any sense of austerity. Window 2023-2035.’ – Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 95/100

‘The 2020 Chardonnay hints at sweet corn but delivers vibrant apple and pineapple flavors. There's greater richness and texture than in the more polite 2021, but the wine remains medium-bodied and silky textured, with a lingering, elegant finish. With only about 10% new oak and no malolactic fermentation, it's a fine example of a less-worked Napa Chardonnay.’ – Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, 93/100

‘Vibrant and intense, with a laser beam of Meyer lemon and yuzu flavors at the core, showcasing lemon thyme, ginger and sea salt minerality on the long finish. Drink now through 2030. 1,800 cases made.’ – MaryAnn Worobiec, winespectator.com, 92/100
