January 9, 2024 - Soft leaking cork but wine surprisingly okay. Light yellow, pretty nose of honeysuckle, mineral and lemon. Light oak and vanilla, lemon curd, pineapple and tropical fruits.

April 4, 2021 - Very nice drinking, but too smooth and not complex, but there is power and unfortunately lots of banana and vanilla apart from the nice acidity with peach and grapefruit. 91-92

March 9, 2021 - This is a great wine. It has everything you want in a Chardonnay. I think Russian River does Chardonnay as good as anything in the US. We had this to celebrate my wife's 50th birthday and my daughter's 22nd birthday. It paired great with slow roasted BBQ chicken, rice and broccoli. Yummy stuff.
