Adelsheim Staking Claim Chardonnay 2018

There is a ton of perfect, ripe Bosc pear on the nose, accompanied by fragrant, spicy florals and an elusive note. The texture is luscious yet refreshing. This wine will pair well with a late spring picnic, dappled sunshine, and nothing else to do.

93 Points - James Suckling

This has a complex and composed feel with a well fitted array of peach and citrus, praline and honeysuckle. Smooth-honed palate that holds a long, fresh and linear shape. Gently stony notes to close. Fruit and oak so melted together.

91 Points - Wine & Spirits

Dusty and bright, this homage to Adelsheim’s home appellation leads with a limeade briskness, offset by mild, nutty lees. The fruit is lean and vibrant, bristling with tense acidity; it needs a bit of cellar time to knit.
