Drank this wine with dinner last night. It was even more delicious than I remember when we visited Pride Mountain. It was a little more crisp than I remember, but had a nice aroma and was completely delicious.

My last bottle. I had my other one 2 months ago, and liked this one much more. I didn't notice as much oak on this bottle. It had a nice crispness to it and good balance of acid, fruit and body.

Maybe this was a bad bottle, but I was underwhelmed, to say the least. Pretty color, nice enough nose, decent finish, but it just struck me as "tired".

Purchased by Jim Pride in 1989. At the top of Spring Mountain, straddling both Napa and Sonoma Counties. a soft pillow of an aroma. lots of clove and spice on the palate. rather ashy palate. 2 separate wineries, 30ft away from each other. One in Napa, one in Sonoma. 25% New French. Neutral for the remainder. Not over the top.

A bit one-dimensional, with not a lot of complexity. Short-med finish. A good everyday chard if the price were lower. Bought at the winery in January 2014.

Still has some good acid on the wine. Nice integration with oak - wish I had a bit more.

Citrus notes with butter and oak. Good stuff.

Seems a little clunky, with lot of buttery (oak) tastes. The nose seemed muted. Went well with a beet and blue cheese salad.

Outstanding Chardonnay with pronounced fruit & just enough oak to create balance and complexity.

Enjoyed thoroughly with a lemon chicken stir fry. Beautiful nose of apricot, lemon and steel.
