JD 98+ (7/2025): The 2023 Chardonnay If And Only If comes from a site in Upper Barn in the Alexander Valley, planted with the Wente clone by Helen Turley in 1982. The wine offers Grand Cru-like depth and intensity, packed with notes of lime oils, green apples, crushed stones, and fresh flowers. Full bodied, it offers a satin-like texture and a vibrant spine of acidity, with outstanding energy, bright saltiness, and a long finish. Stash this one away for a few years, and it should cruise well over the following decade. Drink 2025-2040.This is only Year Two for the winery. They only released the If and Only If last year, so the other two wines are new to the range. All are bottled without being fined or filtered. (Drink between 2025-2040). Audrey Frick.
VM 96 (1/2026): The 2023 Chardonnay If And Only If hails from the Upper Barn Vineyard on Alexander Mountain. The 2023 beckons you in with its depth and power, brooding with intensity and minerality while bristling with brightness and energy. Lemon oil, pear, marzipan, chalk and a lift of fresh mint unfurl in a peacock’s tail of complex flavors and aromas. Everything here is delivered with crystalline focus, leaving a palpable sense of texture and grip that begs you to take another sip, then another. The finish goes on for days. Very impressive stuff. (Drink between 2026-2036)
WA 95+ (6/2025): Bottled the week before I tasted it, the 2022 Chardonnay If And Only If is a touch shy at this stage, offering hints of panna cotta, matchstick and well-woven oak spice. The palate features pure, green tropical fruit flavors and spicy accents. Despite its concentration, its energetic acidity gives it a weightless feel, and it has a long, dynamic finish. 200 cases were made. |

JD 96 (7/2025): Sphaerics doesn’t fine or filter any of their wines, but the brilliant yellow 2023 Chardonnay On Days And Nights looked a bit brighter at this tasting. The nose reveals a bit more depth, with notes of river rocks, light petrichor, and fresh pineapple. Coming from the northern end of the Russian River Valley, from Wente clones planted in 2004 on a steep, rocky slope, it has notes of fresh flowers and lemon candies. Full-bodied, it stays light on its feet, with lovely, balanced richness as well as hints of vanilla spice that last through the finish. It’s another beautiful wine and exceptional for their first vintage. It has fantastic length. Drink 2025-2037.This is only Year Two for the winery. They only released the If and Only If last year, so the other two wines are new to the range. All are bottled without being fined or filtered. (Drink between 2025-2037). Audrey Frick.
VM 94 (1/2026): Hailing from the northeastern reaches of the Russian River Valley, the 2023 Chardonnay On Days And Nights is an archetype of Russian River Chardonnay. It’s powerfully concentrated and deeply layered, saturating every corner of the palate with stone fruit richness and white pepper-like phenolics. Sweet, rounded lemon curd and toasty vanilla tones build with air, but the 2023 maintains a sense of tension through and through. (Drink between 2026-2036). Antonio Galloni.
WA 94+ (6/2025): Bottled the week before I tasted it, the 2023 Chardonnay On Days And Nights opens dramatically with air: apricot, lemon and jasmine give way to deeper tones of brown sugar and panna cotta. The palate is much more open at this stage, offering a satiny texture and concentrated, perfumed fruit flavors. It’s balanced by a crescendo of fresh acidity and has a long, spicy finish. 200 cases were made. |
