A local wine store changed hands and the new owner was unloading these as "cooking wine" since they had been in the store for almost 20 years under "less than ideal" storage conditions. And this is all the proof that you need: wine is tough and resilient. If you're holding something for over 50 years, sure, treat it right. But don't sweat about storage conditions for most wines. |

12/30/2023 - Alexander Smith Likes this wine: 97 pointsEasily one of the best Chardonnays from California. I was hesitant to give 97 but damn this is good, notes of ripe orchard fruit, asian pear, crème brûlée and nutmeg. The palate is succulent and layered with rich Asian fruit, sea salt and vanilla tart flooding the palate, the mid-palate wonderfully layered slight rich yet with this vibrant energy throughout, finishing long and energetic. Wow! Top 3 Chardonnay I have ever tasted. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

12/29/2023 - ledocq Likes this wine: NRWife says this might be the best domestic chardonnay she's ever had and I am too smart to disagree. Beyond the expected flavor profile (note to self - no sulfur! that's a good thing) it went with beef salami and epoisses as if we were following instructions on a celestial label. Will try to get more. No 2020 worries here as of now. |

Slank i innslaget men vokser i munnen, Imponerende struktur og tekstur, veldig lang smakskurve, lineær; salt og røyktoner med en påfuglhale av en ettersmak! Stålende vin. 93 + |

12/15/2023 - oldwines Likes this wine: 94 pointsAnother lovely bottle of this wine. Superbly balanced with complexity and nothing really out of place. Some cream and butter but in good measure, bright acidity, varied citrus notes, white stone fruit, light white florals, wet stones and a long evolving, slightly saline finish. Stunning with pan sautéed red snapper and beurre blanc. |

The palate is full bodied, creme brulee, lemon, wax, a hint of vanilla bean, brine, sour apple, medium finish. Best at room temp. |

10/30/2023 - markricardo wrote: 91 pointsI agree with Thalver's note. I think this wine was a bit over the hill. I probably should have opened it about 3 years ago. Nevertheless, it was still a very well made wine and quite enjoyable but with more mature elements (similar to an older white Burgundy). Drink now for those who still have this wine in their cellar. |

10/22/2023 - Vinus Silvestris Likes this wine: 94 pointsThis has a lot of oak , straight out of the bottle. Double decant in a wide decanter. 3 hours of air. Opens up significantly. Now, this is just lovely. Pear, citrus, oak. Long aftertaste. Not handing back any of these bottles! |

8/12/2023 - oldwines Likes this wine: 94 pointsIn my cellar since release. Tasted over 2 days with and without food. Bright medium to dark lemon yellow. Nose of lemon curd, white peach, cream, not butter. It has nice texture, decent though not extremely high acidity, notes of Marcona almonds, lemony citrus, more of the elements on the nose and only a moderately long finish. Lovely wine. |

8/4/2023 - unc0rked Likes this wine: 93 pointsBig fan of Ramey chardonnays like many other people. This one has nice gorgeous fruit. Sweet long finish. Just a delight on the palate. Alchohol of 14.5% was nicely integrated. I would love to hold on to these wines longer but they take up sooooo much space in my free standing cellar. I have a 2005 Ramey Hudson that just sings so one can wait a while before opening. I think this wine will continue to evolve over the next 5 years. |

7/14/2023 - Vailman Likes this wine: 93 pointsMarvelous crisp citrus flavors including apricot and lemon. The effervescence has resolved (disappeared). This wine is evolving beautifully and has plenty more life. This well-made, full bodied Cali chardonnay can easily go a decade if properly cellared. |
