  November 1, 2019 - Wow!!! We gave this 2 hours of air and drank at room temperature. Rich and opulent, yet creamy and elegant. Beautiful!!!

  September 25, 2019 - Amazing for an older CA chardonnay. Rich, slightly sweet, and wonderful. Citrus, tropical, and a hint of mineral flavors carry this wine. It is unlike anything else labeled Chardonnay in my experience. It won't last much longer though.

  August 12, 2019 - Taking on an aged profile but still so delicious. Caramel and cotton candy are there and more pronounced with age.

  May 5, 2019 - Popped and poured. This is a rich, golden wine. On the nose, I get caramel, honeycomb, beeswax, and apricots. The mouth is mid-weight, with some immediately sweet aspects that pull through into continuing creamy traits and a finish of lingering custard. Overall, the wine is a bit fat and gets tiresome. I like Chards with more verve. Nevertheless, this is reasonably well done for the style. 89 points.
