Au Bon Climat 'Hildegard' Estate White, Santa Maria Valley, California 2023
Vinous: "My favorite wine in this tasting, the 2023 White Hildegard Estate speaks entirely in its own voice. This blend of Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc and Aligoté is a rich, reductive, old-school California white that's unabashedly forward and confident but also completely unique. Flint, orange oil, sweet spices and vanilla create a very Chardonnay-like impression with tons of weight and impressive body, but this wine tastes more like Au Bon Climat than anything else. Intensely singular. Just fabulous. Drink now-2035." 96 points
