November 9, 2010 - Big, oaky flavorful. Drink now, it's just past it's prime.
July 11, 2010 - This wine tastes alot like Conundrum-- tropical/melon on the nose, golden in color, creamy. Not your traditional chardonnay-- I suspect you'll either like it or think its average at best. I enjoyed it; especially on a hot day!
May 2, 2009 - Very good fruity and good finish
December 24, 2008 - This was a pleasant surprise. My last bottle of 2004, served with lobster w/drawn butter. I expected a creamy, oaky chard, and certainly those characteristics were there. However, the fruit was perfectly ripe and there was a beam of acidity on the nose, which intensified on the palate, and carried through to the finish. Very nice.
August 6, 2008 - time was that I loved this wine. maybe it's my palate but now it's (for me) exactly what people describe as "flabby" - i like the creamy butter and over the top chard tastes, but I've been spoiled by the masters (Kistler etc) and this now feels a bit simple and amateurish - not bad by ANY stretch of the imagination, but I'd rather have a bottle of the great stuff every month or so, rather that this more often.
March 13, 2008 - A bit one dimensional - butter, butter and more butter. A bit sweet, with hints of tropical fruits. This was the last bottle from a case and my least favor.
February 1, 2008 - Excellent chard. Nice fruit, allot of oak, great with seafood.
January 4, 2008 - A buttery chardonnay of medium body, though tongue coating. Honeyed-peach and tropical fruit notes and toasted oak. Quite enjoyable.
December 13, 2007 - Medium-to-full bodied with a healthy dose of tropical fruits, butter and oak on the palate.
October 19, 2007 - Some well-made characteristics, but I care not for bananaoakbutterscotch. Actually best on day 3 (88+).
