Steve Heimoff gave Sonoma-Cutrer excellent reviews in the May 2011 Wine Enthusiast buying guide:

2009 Sonoma-Cutrer Russian River Ranches, 91pts: "This Chardonnay, a blend of various coastal vineyards, is marked by high acidity and great dryness. It is emphatically not a soft, honeyed fruit gusher. The sleek minerality and elusive citrus fruit flavors have just the right touch of buttery, toasted oak."   

2009 Sonoma-Cutrer Sonoma Coast Chardonnay, 91pts: "You can feel and taste the cool weather during this vintage in the citrusy acids, steely minerals and sleek, streamlined flavors of Meyer lemons and nectarines. Barrel fermentation adds needed richness. Good price for a dry, sophisticated Chardonnay."
