Consistent with the last couple bottles. Big and buttery, with just enough acidity to keep it fresh. Some apple and pineapple. Lots of sediment - tartaric acid crystals? Went well with shrimp cocktail to my surprise. I was going to pair a lean and minerally Wind Gap James Berry Chard with the shrimp until I found out my guests liked big and buttery chardonnay. Solid and good QPR for this style.

Similar notes as the last bottle. Lots of sediment. Big and buttery but not quite as oaky as the last bottle. Lots of fruit that is more tropical as the wine warms but a little more apple and citrus when it has a heavy chill which is the way I prefer it.

Tons of sediment in this bottle. Pretty big and oaky with tropical fruits and buttered popcorn on the finish. I liked the wine better with a heavy chill on it as it crispened the wine up a little. I was hoping for more citrus and acidity. Ann like it more than me.
