Early peak at '15. Will be hard to beat This wine for P&H. Salty, concentrated. Oak is well integrated. Tons of lemon peel, lemon oil, brûlée, fresh flowers, and great structure. Will reorder. — 8 years ago

12 Rows

Croix Ritchie Vineyard White Blend

, New 12 Rows from Ritchie Vineyard, not overly oaked like Bevans Ritchie. Another off the truck opening. I’ll try the edge hill decant on the next bottle.
Nothing special or unique about it. Just a Chardonnay

I’m spoiled by Edge Hill, Ferren & Paul Hobbs for Chardonnay. Definitely opened too soon, but had to try one early per norm.

New vineyard for this provider and, man, did it sing. Silky smooth with just the right amount of acidity on the finish. Wonderful stone fruit, cedar, and caramel. Looking forward to this vineyard for years to come. — 8 years ago

Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay 2007

This wine was great. Liked the first taste. Yes it had the oak and the butter, but it was balanced and it wasn't overdone. The wine evolved over the hour and the last sip was pure heaven. LOVED the last taste. — 8 years ago

Today was my first time to host Wednesday Wine Committee. I’ve had the good fortune of attending on and off over the last two years and was delighted to finally host a lunch. As many of the wines I brought today I’ve posted on here before, I’m posting the white wine of the day and the red wine of the day. As always, the format of 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 4 reds and 1 dessert wine was in play and everything was tasted blind.

As many of you know, I love Addax wines. Bevan does a wonderful job, as to be expected, and their SauvBlanc is my favorite domestic SB. Sadly, the ‘14 vintage was their last...and their one white is now a chardonnay. It is a Ritchie and Benovia vineyard combo and already tastes so incredibly well at this age. This is creamy like Bevan’s Ritchie chards with a hint of Ritchie nuttiness, but the Benovia vineyard brings about a mineral and sweet note. Great weight and finish. Few guesses of Aubert chard, Montagu Ritchie...good company to be in!

Ten Acre

Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay 2013

13' Ten Acre Ritchie Chardonnay. A touch of citrus notes on the front and middle of the palate. Round this out with some Peach, butternut, honeydew. The minerality & acidity are very nicely balanced throughout the bottle. Highly Recommended! Thank you for this amazing bottle my friend.@Shawn G. Rose . Cheers to you!! — 8 years ago
