December 9, 2011 - Ripe apricot, lemon curd, toasted marshmallow, toasted oak nose. Very ripe, heavy, oak-spiced palate, albeit with a decent tart citrusy acidity. Medium-plus finish. 87-88. Higher for someone who likes this style.

August 15, 2010 - Golden hue, just a little cloudy. Lime dominates the citrus flavor, which is full of fruit. The acid adds just a hint of bitterness, which may add to the longevity of the wine. Very little oak if any. Malolactic fermentation must have been part of the process, it has that mouth coating feel in the midpalate. This is a refreshing wine with lots going on.

October 18, 2009 - This is really pretty awful. Every time I taste it, it gets worse. Overoaked to the point of bitterness, and overripe to boot, with the result being an unpleasant, unbalanced, lifeless wine the detracts from any food you pair with it. At $5/bottle this would be a poor wine.

September 20, 2009 - A jumble of the parts of a good "big" Cali Chard, thrown together carelessly. Bitterly overoaked and overripe.
