Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"Fat Bastard Chardonnay hails from Monterey on the Central Coast of California where the ample sunshine is tempered by the Pacific Ocean. Just like they used to make 'em. An opulent, luscious palate of grilled pineapple and juicy clingstone peach, followed by spiced butterscotch and loads of textural nutty, mealiness. Bright acidity brings length and freshness to the intense fruit characters. Like drinking pure sunshine.
If you like your Chardonnay's big, rich and creamy then this is the one for you!"
5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, November 2024 (2022 Vintage)
"Beautifully styled and richly expressed, showing mango, grilled pineapple, vanilla, and roasted hazelnut aromas on the nose. The palate displays excellent weight and succulent fruit intensity, splendidly framed by fleshy texture and mellow acidity, offering terrific drinking. At its best: now to 2027."
