1995 Kalin Cellars Chardonnay Cuvée LV
Community Tasting Note
mid_palate Likes this wine:
Saturday, June 23, 2018 - An outstanding bottle. Cork saturated about 1/2 way through. Tasted much less oaky than the last bottle I had of this (several years back).
Nose is grilled pineapple, lemon curd, mango.
Quite full bodied. Medium-Minus acidity, but enough to hold it all together.
No hint of oxidation.
Some vanilla-buttery notes.
Great example of an older chard, and one of the (or maybe *the*) best California whites I've had.
Comparable in quality to some old Meursaults I've had lately, but notably riper fruit.
