Don't see this producer often. The pinots are generally worth hitting if on a list or found retail.
@vinokeeno, not sure I want to go there based on this showing. Hudson Seashell was way out ahead of this, for example. I taste similar chards at half the bottle price.

I’ll buy more if the winery lets me. It’s the old story which I loathe: Join the club and access these…
Yeah I am off almost every list now. Not sure what the mailing list price was for these but K&L has them now. I’ve found most of my mailing list wines there, the same vineyards and no min required. I kinda flipped on one list when I saw the same bottle, no min, since I’m close no shipping charge, a materially lower price and available earlier than it was to the list by months? Super unclear why I was paying and waiting for it. I’m sure there are some where it makes sense but it’s fewer and fewer.
@Norman Gennaro, I’m with you. There’s no wine strong enough for me to do that club shit - no wine. As you remarked, plenty of great wines on the secondary market. I already have 1K plus bottles in my cellar. It’s a crime scene already. I have no club memberships and never will have.

Bressay Estate Vineyard Chardonnay 2021
Never had this one and it’s been quite a while since I had Isobel or Chloe but memory keeps me a fan.
@Norman Gennaro, I have those in my cellar (bottle of each).

Seashell Chardonnay 2020
Really nice Chard producer.
Yes, @vinokeeno. Even their appellation bottling is strong 💪🏾
I begged for more seashell, but the winery gave me a “FO” tablet!
