90 pts from Robert Parker!

The outstanding 2005 Chardonnay Bacigalupi Vineyard has a lemon tartness, medium to full body, and a beautiful, almost Chablis-like personality, but not the complexity of the 2006. It is best drunk in its first 2-4 years of life. A totally new viticultural and wine-making team is in place at Rudd, including viticultural manager, Bill Vyenielo, as well as superstars David Abreu and Michel Rolland. The new winemaker in addition to Rebekah Wineburg is Pat Sullivan. I think all of this reflects the meticulous perfectionism of proprietor Leslie Rudd, who wants to push this winery, with its fabulous source of vineyards (including the home estate right across the street from Screaming Eagle and down the slope from Dalla Valle), into the superstar stratum of Napa. - RP Dec 2007 issue of The Wine Advocate
