Very fresh on the nose; a bit green but in a refreshing way. Just a hint on the vegetal side on the palate - but I appreciate that they are doing something truly cool-climate here. Can be an enjoyable choice if you're looking for a fresh chardonnay. 89-90

Anita: Lemon cake, lemon popcycle, ice, lean, not creamy; slight mix of candy, lemon, searing tart a’s (maybe picked a little too muc underrripe!) and touch mineral; med. bod--slightly more than the Chablis, w/less showing in mid-p; and a touch flabby, even though shows killer a’s! Anyway, better w/spicy Cod b/c of the heat. The other chablis went better. W/Kiki & family

Mineral and textured. Very fresh for a Californian Chardonnay. Apple fruit, earthy with a bit of funk which made it hard to place as a new world chard as this was tasted blind. Glyceral with an interesting dichotmy of texture and freshness. I would love to taste this again with a little more time on it.

Brian’s: Very cloudy green-yellow color! smelled of fresh green apples, apple juice, raw white grape juice; “hippie juice” I call it; light cinamon-pie crust; elegant nontheless, grt bal, excellent balanced acidity, med. bod--not at all oaked, maybe 1/2 malo? Good style, nice character, although somewhat simple--not nec. a complex wine. Great w/the cream based pancetta w/parmigiano on top soup.

Very tasty with strong minerality and pretty floral, white fruit flavors.
Impressive finish as well.
