April 23, 2024 - Reminds me of a Bourgogne Blanc with just the right amount of oak. Not typical of California Chardonnay.

March 8, 2024 - Pale Straw color, totally translucent.
Aroma is bright & fresh. At first it screams green apple and lime. As it settles in some light vanilla is evident, but just hanging out and not getting in the way.
Bright fresh acidity with the green apple and citrus continuing to make itself known. The oak on the palate is hinted at with some subtle vanilla once again. A touch of cream on the mouth feel. Mouth watering in a very good way.
Really nice -

February 7, 2024 - Ganske utypisk chardonnay med tropisk frukt, honning, litt urter, pære og mineraler i retning sand. Bra lengde og bra balanse, men kunne hatt enda litt mere syre.

December 28, 2023 - An outstanding light bodied Chardonnay with crisp but subtle fruit. An excellent Chardonnay for Sauvignon Blanc lovers.
