Medium light gold. Gorgeous complex nose of tropical fruits and a hint of honey, perhaps from botrytis. Clean and crisp with more citrus flavors on the palate and finish. Very bright. Gorgeous wine and a very good example of the vineyard character.

This wine did not do it for me whatsoever. Tasted blind alongside 6 other California Chardonnay + 1 Oregon Chardonnay. This came in last place. I thought it was the Oregon Chardonnay. Only because it stood out completely vs the other wines in the flavour profile. Whereas they others, including the actual Oregon Chardonnay, tended to be pretty massive and buttery, this one was more narrow, bit watery and even felt like there was some Sauvignon Blanc mixed in. Very odd. Some in the group had it slighly higher, but nobody placed it higher than the bottom tier. I definitely expected more from Littorai.

Tasted at the winery. Light gold colour. Buttery nose. Green apples, tropical palate. Quite a complex wine. Good balance of French oak. (11m, 25% new). Excellent.

A bit disjointed, neither the clean obvious matchstick or citrus aromatics I'd expect.

This was fine. Kept feeling like it was on the edge of opening up but never really made it. Maybe just needs more time.
