Community Tasting Note

Monday, May 26, 2008 - Butterscotch, nuts, orchard fuits, lime, and popcorn here. Smoky minerals and more savory on the nose than previous offerings. A tremendous amount of palate presence here, almost grippy, and meaty if I have ever seen meatiness in a Chardonnay. A brilliant and mature wine that demands your focus. At its age, a totally different expression of the vineyard than the younger wines, that forces you to both think and passively enjoy its greatness. Would be great with food, and I love the savory flavors. Stylistically, I wonder if the ’96 will turn into this wine? 96pts
