“The 2022 Chardonnay Maresh Vineyard comes from a block of Dijon clone vines planted in 1991 in the Dundee Hills on a steep, south-facing slope at 675 feet of elevation. Barrel fermented and matured for 10 months in 15% new French oak, plus four months in stainless steel, it’s reminiscent of Chablis and boasts exceptionally pure aromas. It opens with flint and petrichor before blossoming to apricot, elderflower liqueur, lime peel and hazelnuts. The palate is vibrant and silky with understated layers of creamy, peachy fruit, and its linear acidity and flinty tones come together for a shimmery finish. For several days after it's opened, the Maresh Vineyard becomes more and more expressive, pointing to a long life in the cellar. 95 - Erin Brooks, The Wine Advocate.
“Dusty nose of gunpowder, chamomile and dried citrus peel on a bed of white peaches and pears. Some bread crust, too. Medium-bodied with nervy acidity and peach stone bitterness. It's fresh, focused and well-balanced. Drink or hold.” 94 - JamesSuckling.com
“Green melon and mint give way to spring flowers, raw almonds and wet stones as the 2022 Chardonnay Maresh Vineyard comes to life in the glass. This is silky-smooth with notes of yellow apple and salty mineral tones, all enriched by an air of custard. Hints of hazelnut resonate over a coating of tactile minerals and fine tannins as a bumpy of residual acidity maintains freshness. Very nice.” 93 - Eric Guido, Vinous.

OUR STORY
FOUNDERS AND BACKGROUND
Founders Marco Prete and Cristina Fragni have spent a lifetime in close contact with the top European winemakers and cellar masters, and have spent decades on their shared passion for learning, tasting, and even assisting in the production of fine wines.
After relocating to NYC in 2013, they found that many of their favorite vintages were not available in the US. Inspired by a lack of available inventory on the usual channels, they decided that it was essential to them personally and professionally to create a bespoke, world-class collection of fine wines available for US import.
The Wines of Kings collection of exquisite wines reflects the founders’ obsession with premium wines that are made authentically.
