2016 Joseph Jewell Shiloh Hill Vineyard Russian River Valley Chardonnay

14.2% alc., pH 3.62, TA 0.62, 125 cases, $42. Release July 2019. Clone 4 (Wente) planted in 1992 in gravelly loam soil. Barrel fermented, 100% MLF, aged 11 months in French oak barrels, 20% new. · Moderate golden yellow color in the glass. Shy, but pleasant aromas of golden apple, buttery lemon tart, yellow cake and a hint of green flora. Graciously styled, with flavors of lemon, pear and vanilla. Pleasant enough, but a bit shallow and mundane challenging me to reach for descriptors. Score: 89. Reviewed June 19, 2019 WINERY » ARTICLE »

2015 Joseph Jewell Russian River Valley Chardonnay

12.9% alc., pH 3.48, TA 0.59, 235 cases, $N/A. 50% sourced from Starscape Vineyard Wente clone and 50% from Shiloh Hill Vineyard clone 4. Harvest Brix 22.2º-24.2º. Aged 11 months in French oak barrels, 33% new. · Moderate golden yellow color in the glass. Pleasant aromas of lemon, pineapple, kiwi and banana. Silky in the mouth with discrete richness, offering a core of citrus fruit, integrated acidity and a subtle touch of woody oak in the background. Nothing to criticize but nothing to excite.
