Community Tasting Note

• rcg62 wrote: 94 points

  February 8, 2013 - Nose of chalk, mineral, and subtle salinity. There's also an acid ripple with something like a lime rind note. Aging so well (or not aging much at all, really!). This wine very much benefitted by being opened a couple of hours before drinking (accidentally -- but I'd poured a glass early, tried it, and we didn't get back to it til later). Classic flavors of granitey, shell-like mineral, but there's a nice twist of butterscotch from this maturing Chardonnay! I will say this...as I started this bottle I thought it was a 90 and possibly flawed (slight oxidation?), and hours later I was loving it. And as I started this review I was thinking 92... Became 94 in the glass!
