  1/1/2020 - Schwarzer Hund Likes this wine:

  Medium yellow color, citrus and apple aromas upon opening, rich opulent fruit includes some tropical and floral aspect with a strong mineral background. Finish is long, smooth and dense fruit laden. A very nice Cali chardonnay.

  Golden in color. 14.5% ABV. Pretty nose of tropical fruits, flowers and minerals. Medium body with exquisite acidity. Rich and lush with great mouth feel. Pear, lemon oil and vanilla bean on the palate. The finish is exceptional. Aging beautifully with no signs of premature oxidation. No reason to wait any longer here. Awesome Chardonnay. Best over the next year or so.

  I was expecting to pour this down the drain, but it is still fresh, with light straw color and good acidity. The fruit is there and delicious. I have one more, but even though I believe it has life in it, I think I will drink it soon.
  The wine looks straw colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like melon and pineapple. The body is medium/full. The wine has bright texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

  caramel apple, peach, bourbon nose, then peach, clove, crushed oyster shell, moderate oak, with a nice precise mouthfeel, with a long apple tinged finish. well rounded, and dont really think its going downhill yet. (FWIW, my cellar is cold in the winter.)
