“The Summum Chardonnay from the Evening Land Seven Springs Estate is a thing of beauty. The aromatics of crushed slate, oyster shells and briny lemon peel offer an angularity that belies the wine's rich textured mouthfeel. The savoury elements continue to leap out at you, with briny notes of seafoam, salted lemon and brisk, piquant early-season nectarine flesh. The richness of the texture is constantly buoyed by the wealth of minerality in this delightful Chardonnay, showing why the Eola-Amity Hills offer some of the best terroir for the variety in the US.”
James Suckling: 96 Points
“Full of energy and vibrancy, this expressive and layered chardonnay offers dried lemon, dried pineapple, spice, herb, lemon curd, seashell and umami character. The medium-bodied palate is smooth and finely textured, with gentle creaminess balanced by bright acidity and a lingering, minerally finish. So pure and delicious. Drink or hold.”

“There has to be a language where "summum" means "totally worth it." This majestic Chardonnay leads with a lemony magnolia aroma, then jabs with notes of toasted filberts, gunflint, butter and Golden Delicious apples. Vigorous acidity and a lithe texture accompany flavors like lemon curd, dragon fruit and lime zest. Extraordinary stuff.”
Jeb Dunnuck: 95 Points
“The 2022 Chardonnay Summum exhibits the highest intensity in the range, with notes of white peach, fresh pineapple, powdery floral perfume, and smoky earth. It offers structured and full-bodied richness, with a bright spine of acidity and a chalky texture that never loses focus and clarity. Drink over the coming 12 years.”
Wine Advocate: 95 Points
“Matured in 70% new, 500-liter Stockinger puncheons, the 2022 Chardonnay Summum has dramatically unfurling scents of matchstick, red apple, peach, roasted almonds and honey, becoming more expressive as it airs in the glass. The medium-bodied palate is brimming with concentrated, honeyed flavors. It’s balanced by fireworks of fresh acidity and has a very long, satiny finish. It’s a stunning iteration of Summum that should be long lived in the cellar. 344 cases were made.”
