Score 94/100 · Drink 2026-2032, Billy Norris, Vinous, Jan 2026
The 2023 Chardonnay Durell Vineyard is generous and open-knit, with great focus to its layers of yellow plum, pear and iodine. A slight flicker of tropicality emerges with air. The 2023 impresses with its weight and density without any heaviness, especially notable in the absence of new oak.

Score 92/100 · Drink 2025-2031, Jeb Dunnuck, Jul 2025
The 2023 Chardonnay Durrell Vineyard pours a slightly deeper medium yellow color and opens to aromas of lemon rind, pineapple, flint, and wet stones. The palate is savory and has more structure, with a pithy texture and a clean finish with pleasing hints of saline. It’s a nicely styled Chardonnay to drink over the next 5-6 years.
