May 4, 2019 - Lovely, strong tropical fruit aromas. Drank on the cooler side and this benefited with more air. Delicious flavors, tropical, lemon, and some stone. The mouthfeel was fantastic, initially somewhat round, full and smooth, but finished with a really attractive mouth-watering acidity. This may be my favorite SG wine to date. Reminds me of the style of a white burgundy, but I don't know enough about those appellations and I'm thinking maybe Macon or Mersault. The CT drink dates are totally wrong as this will easily continue to 2022 and probably could go to 2025; I'll put in mine now. Great stuff!

May 31, 2018 - This is awesome. A really fantastic beam of acidity keeps it fresh, but there's depth to this, with notes of lychee, matchsticks, and a flinty minerality that I've yet to encounter in a WA white. A wonderful wine.

June 30, 2016 - I agree fully with prior comments. This is OUTSTANDING. I drank over two days and it holds up. Nice crispness and 'tomato-like' flavors which I love. I think this is my favorite Chardonnay that I have tasted yet (from all regions). By the way, I am not a fan of the buttery Chards. This is not that at all.
