I believe that this is the first N&N single vineyard chardonnay that I have drank. Prefer the consistency and richness of the Far Niente chardonnays over this but was decent nonetheless. Rich golden hue and very aromatic with notes of lemon and stone fruit; very creamy mouthfeel; medium finish, moderate level of acidity. A solid and enjoyable wine.

Actually drank for a several days and with the air pumped out, stayed very good the entire time! This is still a little crisp, but is starting to soften up. Very fruit forward with citrus nose and taste of tangerines, green apple and lemons. It has overtones of smoke and oak with a medium finish.

Rich texture, good nose, and nicely balanced.

A beautiful straw gold.
Nose:
Rich stone fruit, lemon, clear signs of MLF, lemon/lime soda, oak.
Palate:
Buttered popcorn, tangerine, sweet lemon, lime zest, pear, and a hint of oak.
I dare say this competes with Far Niente's flagship Chardonnay and it's well worth the price.

Melon, apple, pear and citrus coming and going. Good acid and flavor. Just above moderate oak influence but not a lot of malo. Very good.
