90 Points - Wine Advocate, December 2009
"The 2007 Chardonnay from Trefethen’s estate vineyard in Oak Knoll, in the southern part of Napa, displays notes of pear, lemon blossom, hints of honeysuckle and tropical fruit, a subtle use of wood, and a medium-bodied, fleshy mouthfeel. This is a beauty to drink over the next 2-3 years." -Robert Parker

Rating and review for 2006 vintage:

88 points - Wine Spectator, April 30, 2008
"Ripe, exotic spiced apple cider flavors give this a unique twist, with citrus, mineral and light oak folding in to add depth. Drink now. 44,000 cases made." -JL
