2024 Bee Block Chardonnay
94 Pts, Jeb Dunnuck
Bee Block is bathed in sunshine both on the vine and in the glass. It is the most primary expression of fruit on Spring Ridge, aromatic with pear and mango and wildflowers. Quenching but delicate stone fruit on the palate, finishing with a bright, zesty, and summery flourish.

Critical Acclaim
“From an older vineyard block with its share of challenges, the one most exposed to the sun and the wind, the barrel-fermented 2024 Chardonnay Estate Spring Ridge Vineyard Bee Block is aged 10 months in 15% new French oak, with a fruit-forwardness that appeals. Mango, pear, and bright acidity highlight a medium-bodied richness that’s subtle and complex, drinking beautifully now and for the next 8-10 years.”
