The 2015 Chardonnay Sugar Shack Estate is pure honeyed apricots and beeswax with suggestions of bread, salted almonds, croissant and a touch of aniseed. It is full-bodied, rich, intense, lifted, fresh and really well structured with a solid backbone, finishing long and sleek with some minerals. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown (31-10-2017)
The 2015 Chardonnay Sugar Shack, from Mark Aubert's ranch in Rutherford, is rich, ample and creamy. This is an especially opulent, flamboyant Chardonnay built on serious texture and volume. Cr?me caramel, tropical fruit, lemon confit and white flowers infuse the huge finish.- Antonio Galloni (03/2017)
