Alexander Valley California
Connoisseurs Guide to Wine 91
"Stuhlmuller continues its recent string of Chardonnay successes with yet another winner. From its fresh, carefully oaked aromas of well-defined apples to its deep and gregarious young flavors, it is not only rich in fruit but shows, even at its tender age, a bit of expansion and suggestions of complexity to come. Very well-balanced and long on the palate, it finishes with a fruity flourish and, while thoroughly enjoyable now, it has the clear capacity to develop for several years. Its price makes it all the better."

"Stuhlmuller has established a fine track record with this wine. The sgnature is an oak-infused spiciness, and the flamboyant tropical fruit flavors of Alexander Valley Chardonnay. Tiers of pineapples, pear and magoes flood the palate, leading to a long, honey-rich finish." ~S. H.
