Held on to this last bottle as sort of an "experiment". Looking over my TN, the last time I had this was 2006... five years ago. Hard to believe, where does all the time go? Seems like this is past it's prime. It is more of a dessert wine. There is no acidity to speak of. It seems flabby. But there is delicious notes of apricot, honey, green apple and pineapple. It's quite delicious, just wish there was more acidity. However, it's still lip-smacking good. Outstanding

May be a little past prime, but still a great chard. Good balance, with a nose of tropical fruits and on the palate, a nice combo of peach, pineapple and vanilla cream with a hint of minerality. Really nice.

This is the last of two cases. Best QPR Chardonnay that we have purchased in the last few years. Unfortunately, we waited too long to finish the last bottle. The fruit has faded to the point that it is a shadow of what it once was.

Solid and strong; good oak and great balance. Buttery. Feels like it's just started it's descent. Drink now.
