Top Chardonnay of the Year! Enough said.
Wine Enthusiast magazine just released their Top 100 Cellar Selections list and it’s no surprise the highest rated Chardonnay is once again Mayacamas.
Former Screaming Eagle winemaker, Andy Erickson, is now making this iconic wine and continues its legacy as the best of the best.

Top 100 Cellar Selection #7
Made from decades-old dry-farmed vines planted to the Wente clone in rocky, volcanic soils, this is a stunning wine, flinty, fleshy and expansive, with undeniable minerality. Lemon zest, meringue and pear contrast against persistent acidity and a lasting briny tone that lifts the palate further.

Mayacamas always delivers such focused and well-crafted chardonnay like this with cooked-apple, pear, light vanilla and seashell character on the palate. It’s tight and super integrated with a tight, creamy palate that goes on for minutes. Serious structure.Mayacamas always delivers such focused and well-crafted chardonnay like this with cooked-apple, pear, light vanilla and seashell character on the palate.
