  April 17, 2024 - Last minute replacement for a flawed bottle, this was instantly happy to be opened, with bright lemon and ripe apple fruit, as well as a pleasing dash of spice. It reminded me more than a little of the Ramey Fort Ross Seaview (aka Sonoma Coast) Chardonnay, and that’s a really good thing.

  March 26, 2022 - Wine was DOA… flat, almost flavorless with no nose. Flawed or fouled.

  February 15, 2021 - Light gold color. Decanted. Now almost 3h after decant. Shy aromas of golden delicious apples and a bit of bruised apples, honeysuckle, and mild herbs. Palate w just ripe golden delicious apples mixed w some meyer lemon, herbs a bit of honeysuckle, a bit of minerals. Excellent acids on medium to full bodied frame. Minerals come up more in mid-palate. Nice finish of meyer lemon, tart apples, flint, and herbs. Nice complexity. I suspect this has nice midterm aging potential. Would love to have this wine again in 5 and 10 yrs. I like this the more that I linger with this. Inital impression was 89ish. Now 91.

  December 15, 2020 - Really nice stuff that started to open up on hour two in the bottle. Citrus and creamy stone fruit with a nice floral lift. Spearmint, vanilla bean, and mineral ring in the finish. Drinking well now and likely over the next five years.
