May 10, 2023 - Last bottle of the 2018 vintage. Was a bit concerned as the cork tore in half when opening. Fortunately the contents were as outstanding as the ones previously consumed. Beautiful golden color, but also a perfumed and floral nose. On the palate lively fruit with honeyed, citrus notes. Perfect nuances of oak deepened complexity. Just a great vintage for this wine as it is in the top echelon of Chardonnays I enjoy.

September 9, 2022 - Outstanding effort that is drinking beautifully. Nice level of acid that enhances and lifts lively fruit. Some lemon curd, orchard fruit and subtle oak application that integrates very well. Has some vigor and a slight edge, but balanced nicely by the other components. Once this warms and settles in the glass for a bit it truly shines.

July 8, 2021 - Impeccable Chardonnay from one of my favorite producers. This wine hits my sweet spot. Great purity of fruit, just the perfect amount of acidity and superb mouthfeel. The flavor profile is excellent, mellow but full at the same time. This is like drinking a celestial body. Very impressive to be sure.
