Score 89/100 · Drink 2013-2017, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Aug 2011

The 2009 Chardonnay Collezione De Marchi is quite exuberant in this vintage. It is an explosive, creamy wine bursting at the seams with passion fruit, mango and a host of other tropical fruit, with additional complexity from the French oak. This is a big vintage for the estate's Chardonnay.
