Still in fine form, the oak is still prominent, and perhaps out of place with the sweet tones of fruit and the sour lactic tones of the ML. on the whole balanced, and 13.5%, with decent acidity, but flavor integration wise, no further upswing to this

Creamy, luxurious texture and predominantly floral nose. Acid diminished greatly at this point and had to chill to enjoy more. Seems like this may be best 4-6 years after the vintage year.

At Jess and Matt's 'Wedding.': Not real tropical. Cream, hazelnut, hazelnut. Integrated oak, probably not quite the acid of the '05 we had a year and a half ago.

White flowers, honeysuckle, minimal wood, strong muscat-like character, decent acidity and moderate alcohol. Showing an unusual but very intriguing Rued clone profile. Fun wine, if not as expected. Tasted at the winery tasting room.

Opulent and creamy, lovely finish. Drinking well now, probably not getting significantly better.

Drinking very nicely with some secondary and rich fruit characteristics. Somewhat low in acidity, but still focused and refreshing.

Tart fruit nose. Buttered popcorn and a hint of lemon. Long, pleasant finish.

Butter popcorn, sour apple and lemon, with some oak. It was an average chardonnay. This was a B.
