93 points "91-93pts. The 2009 Chardonnay La Carriere (1,900 cases produced) reveals lovely notes of brioche, tropical fruit blossoms, oranges, white currants and lemon butter. Medium-bodied with beautiful fruit, good acidity and a touch of minerality, it should be enjoyed over the next 5-6 years. " Best 2011-2017

90 points "The 2010 Chardonnay La Carriere is a beautifully taut, focused wine laced with lemon, spices and mint. It possesses excellent energy and cut through to the finish. The Carriere shows plenty of focus, but it also has an element of heaviness that is typical of the Chardonnays here in 2010. It will be interesting to see how the wine develops over the coming year. This is Peter Michael's steepest vineyard. (90-93)." Best 2015-2020
