  Same as on 09/06/14. Complex and full but lacking in acidity.

  This wine is big and sweet. It's very good but I think its no longer in my style of preference. That said, it was enjoyable and had a very sweet leaning flavor profile dominated by caramel and marzipan. There was also some concentrated lemon and a touch of ripe apple. More acidity would have made this a home run.

  Golden color with marzipan, honey, creme brûlée, vanilla, and faint hints of apple. The palate is big, mouthcoating, and ripe. This is a monster chard that seems to be lacking in acidity. Too much oak that covers the fruit and too oily on the palate. Not a fan.

  Wine Reviews: Chardonnay: SRP: $48. On the nose, melon, white flower, and riverbed, backed by elegant toasted oak and restrained butter. On the palate, more citrus notes come through. A well-structured, well-balanced wine with a great acid profile.
