Jeb Dunnuck: 97+ Points
The 2019 Chardonnay Ma Princesse comes from the Russian River Valley (Ritchie Vineyard) and it's another terrific Chardonnay. Stunning stone fruits white flowers green almond chalky mineral and a beautiful sense of salty mineral marine-like character all define the bouquet and it's medium to full-bodied with a tight backward mouthfeel and a great finish. It needs at least another year in the cellar but it?s going to deliver the goods through 20

Wine Advocate: 96-98+ Points
Ma Princesse comes from the Ritchie vineyard in Russian River planted to Old Wente clone selection from vines that are 50+ years old. A barrel sample to be bottled in February 2021 the 2019 Chardonnay Ma Princesse needs a little swirling to unlock gorgeous scents of lemon meringue pie lime cordial and honeydew melon with wafts of toasted almonds brioche and nutmeg. The medium to full-bodied palate has a decadent oiliness to the texture with just enough freshness to lift the ripe rich melon and toast flavors with a long finish. 400 cases are due to be made.
Vinous: 93 Points
The 2019 Chardonnay Ma Princesse is creamy open-knit and quite seductive. Soft contours lend tremendous charm to this super-expressive Chardonnay. Bright floral accents add lift as well as energy. This rich resonant Chardonnay has a ton to offer.
