July 2, 2021 - This is an awesome Chardonnay. Hits well on a lot of levels but the structure surprised me. Super layered with fruits, a gorgeous wine.
July 2, 2021 - Popped and poured. This thing is ripping. Good from the get go. Mellow, golden goodness. Drink now or in 10 years.
May 5, 2021 - Similar to prior note; outstanding & at peak, just beautiful
January 30, 2021 - SO'd for an hour, deep gold, creamy lemon, coconut & caramel; outstanding & exactly what a mature CA chardonnay should aspire to, ready to drink
May 26, 2018 - Nose of Wente clone. Butterscotch, vanilla. On the palate nice balance, vanilla custard, a touch of minerality, but not that of white burgundy. Nice wine.
July 26, 2016 - At Garth's party. Soft oaky buttery goodness.
June 29, 2015 - exceptional Chardonnay. Very bright, flavorful, drinking extremely well.
June 7, 2015 - I was blown away by this. One of the best chardonnays that I can remember. Lots of smoothness with raciness of the lemon fruit and custard profile. The finish was exquisite with just a hint of creaminess from the oak. Really drinking well right now but will last for quite a few more years for sure
June 8, 2014 - Normally wonderful, this bottle tasted like it was bottled slightly flawed which I haven't come across before from PH.
