The Three Sticks home vineyard, Durell, is a staple of their portfolio and this signature chardonnay takes a top seat in the fall offering each year. Lush chardonnay thrives in the sweeping hillsides and rocky soils of Durell Vineyard-resulting in a wine bursting with flavors of lemon zest, golden apple, and ruby red grapefruit. Hints of honeysuckle, Marcona almond, and a touch of toasty oak further complement this bottle's strong backbone and remarkable depth. This is a Durell Chardonnay to be remembered.

A savory and powerfully taut style, with concentrated dried sage and tarragon accents to a vibrant mix of apple and glazed pear flavors, which are supported by firm acidity. Delivers light buttery accents on the fresh finish. This should reward time in the cellar. Best from 2023. - 94 - - Wine Spectator
