USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley
Aged in 40% new French oak, 60% stainless. Very crisp. Lots of green fruit and herbs on the nose and palate. Complex palate. Very little diacetyl. Long finish of green berries and herbs. A lovely Chardonnay. Very good.

From very young vines. Very floral nose; also cola, tea, cherries. Very pretty. Silky, light palate; a beautiful, light (relatively), elegant wine. Very low tannin. Long, subtle mineral finish. This is a very very good wine that will benefit from a couple of years of age.
Darker fruit on the nose than the Pratt Vine Hill (though the vineyards share an owner), with an herbal element. Nice nose. The palate is also much richer, darker, and more intense than the Pratt Vine Hill, and in general comes across as less elegant. OK.

This took a while to coax the nose into revealing something; quite young and tight, with a good amount of tannin. Behind that is beautiful fruit, with mineral and green fruit notes that will take a few years in the bottle. Very very good.

Yeasty red berry and more tart green berry nose. On the palate, tropical fruit, stone fruit, red cherry and berry. Very pretty fruit. Not much on the finish, sadly.

Biscuits and green apple on the nose; ripe tart green fruit on the palate, with some citrus and minerality. Excellent acidity. Long finish with some sweeter orange citrus. Wow. Unexpected quality. Excellent wine.
