This is a bone dry, austere and acidic Chardonnay, whose flavors are marked by minerals and tart citrus fruits. But it has plenty of interesting complexity—a Chablis-style California Chardonnay that could develop bottle complexities over the next six years.——S.H.(5/1/2011)—— 90

Marked by extreme dryness, acidity, minerality, floral notes and lemon-peel tartness, this is a Chablis-style Chardonnay. It’s quite elegantly structured, if not particularly opulent. An intellectual wine. Now–2012.——S.H.(10/1/2009)—— 91

There’s a minerality to this Chard that makes it bracing, although it also shows the opulence of Fogarty’s other ’04s. A tang of gunmetal undergirds the tropical fruit and vanilla custard flavors that are wrapped into a creamy texture. Almost begs for shrimp, lobster, crab, the more richly prepared, the better.——S.H.(10/1/2007)—— 92
