Wine Advocate Review
Rated 100
The 2015 Chardonnay Point Rouge is pure pedigree and class, showing all the elegance and seamlessness of a truly top-tier Chardonnay. Opening with tightly furled citrus and spiced apple notes over salty almond, cashew, allspice, anise and ginger, plus wafts of orange blossom and crushed rocks, the medium-bodied palate is wonderfully well poised, with seamless flavor layers intermingled with just enough freshness, finishing long and beautifully perfumed. Wow.
Offering elegance, complexity and richness, the 2015 Point Rouge is an exceptional wine. The nose is filled with aromas of apricot, ripe apple, citrus oils, orange rind, Williams pear, almond and acacia honey. Seamless and rich in the mouth, notes of nougat, greengage, orange marmalade, honeysuckle, spice cake, vanilla and white truffle are framed with an oyster shell minerality. The wine offers a rare harmony, as well as extraordinary tactile persistence. While already refined, the wine will gain even more complexity in 4-5 years and should continue to age gracefully for three decades.
