Coming from a terrific site located at the southern end of the Santa Lucia Highlands, the 2016 Chardonnay East of Eden Pisoni Vineyard boasts phenomenal notes of ripe citrus and white peach fruits, white flowers, and freshly crushed rocks. It's clean, incredibly pure, and elegant on the palate, with a level of tension and vibrancy you don't find too often in the vintage. I followed this bottle for two days and it only improved with air. It's brilliant Chardonnay from Lato that's going to benefit from a year or two of bottle age and age gracefully for a decade or more. Don't miss it! | 97+ points, Jeb Dunnuck for jebdunnuck.com
