The Rochioli family has been growing grapes on their property since the late 1950s with the vineyard now farmed by the third generation. The 2021 Ramey Rochioli blend is sourced from 82% Mid-40 Block and 18% River Block. This wine delivers a gorgeous intensity of fruit and pressed wildflowers. On the palate ripe lemon peel fruit expands into the mid-palate where density builds alongside remarkable tension all balanced by an extraordinary silky richness. Pure and riveting laced with subtle vanilla accents fantastic ginger character and poached pear. A Chardonnay of intense richness and impressive length. (The first vineyard-designate release from Ramey was the 2015 vintage though Ramey has been sourcing these grapes since 2008.) Tasted by: Jonathan Cristaldi 01/2025

Wine Spectator: 95 Points

This white's impressive flavors of fresh ripe peach and apricot are fleshy and juicy with vibrant accents of Fuji apple pear and grilled lemon while the acidity gives more energy to the core. Grace notes of candied citrus zest crunchy sea salt and fennel pollen plus a touch of lemon basil gain momentum on the finish. Drink now through 2039.?M.W.
