July 12, 2016 - Surprisingly high quality finish with fine acids, lemon peel, and deep mineral notes. The rest of the experience doesn't deliver quite as much with a more modern and fruit driven nose and a rather undifferentiated front half to the palate.

April 7, 2016 - Rich and round Chardonnay with some overt oak. Took awhile to settle down. Not a fan of this.

March 25, 2016 - Fruity nose with rather ripe apples, pears and plums. Rather soft palate with fruity flavors. The acidity stays in the background and is soft.
This is a gentle and fruit based wine that lacks some energy. -

March 18, 2016 - By the big rock. A big darn rock. Salty and s avory and quite fine. Pineapple and tropical fruit. 95th at works it out. Big and fleshy but drink now and get it done. 20% new oak. The baby is 10% new oak maximum. A richer style of macon I am being told and there it is.
