Scoring a commendable 92 points, this 94 Pt. SIXTO Roza Hills Chardonnay from Washington’s 2019 vintage is a testament to the region’s capabilities. The terroir of Roza Hills brings forth a Chardonnay that is both complex and inviting, with a flavor profile that dances between ripe apple, pear, and subtle hints of toasted oak. Its texture is beautifully balanced, offering a silky mouthfeel that is neither too heavy nor too light. Ideal for a celebratory dinner or a casual night in, this Chardonnay pairs wonderfully with seafood, particularly grilled prawns or creamy scallop dishes. While it delivers well beyond its peers, it remains an accessible luxury, proving to be a truly great value find.
