October 20, 2021 - Lemon-themed meal with grilled salmon, spaghetti a la limone and asparagus with feta and lemon zest. This chardonnay went perfectly with just the right combination of weight and acidity. Delicious!

August 6, 2021 - (at The Ryder Cup Bar - Kiawah) Skirts the fine line of richness and vibrancy. Elevated alcohol but not over the line. The fruit is pure. Nice but not more. (90)

May 12, 2021 - Medium gold in colour with aromas of earthy minerality, apples & nuts.
On the palate, medium bodied citrus/lemon, green apple, nutty, somewhat buttery & creamy, a saline backbone & medium to high acidity.
The finish is long to spice & a chalky minerality. There is very good flavour & texture complexity.
