  April 12, 2024 - Not my cub of tea. Super Creamy/Buttery. We paired with Halibut and the food improved the wine for my taste. My friends loved it, they like California Chards

  May 20, 2023 - Medium body green apple and maybe slight white peach. Almonds on the finish. The acid is lovely and lasts forever. Served with buttery dill halibut and cheese risotto

  December 25, 2022 - eyes-medium to light straw
  nose-med-high intensity, stone fruits-peach & apricot, pear, honeydew, light citrus, high complexity
  mouth-med intensity, green apple, pear, honeydew, lemon curd, light wood, med-high acidity
  summary-very well-balanced, intense flavors offset by crisp acidity, complex aromas and flavors that evolve in the mouth

  November 26, 2022 - Love this wine. So much going on here.
  Pop n pour, to reveal aromas of soft pineapple, drops of lemon, mint and lemongrass. On the palate its medium acidity, lovely feel and a crisp finish with almond paste coming across.
  It ends up opening up more with more oaky notes but the refreshing crisp finish remains. Buttered popcorn but in an elegant manner, not knock you in the face oaky Cali style. Could take any Puligny or Meursault. Bravo Monsieur Barrett. Bravo 👏👏
