Fresh and clean aromas. Pear, pineapple, green apple, and wet stone. Medium plus body, medium acid, and a pleasantly crisp finish. This is delicious. Will gain more weight/richness over time but it’s in the zone for my tastes.

Wonderful tropical chardonnay, although it did take some time to open up. Well balanced, good mix of stone fruit, citrus, and oak. Paired well with garlic mushroom cream chicken. Smooth, flavorful, and easy drinking; just lacking the wow factor I was hoping for.

Wow this one is a winner. Very nice tropical fruit citrus notes, lemon, peach with a great richness to it. Has some mineral elements on the long finish.

In the cellar for about 28 months. Had half the bottle with broiled halibut and roasted asparagus - wonderful connection. Second half with spicy Asian food - it was perfect. Medium finish - I can taste the pear, citrus and pineapple mentioned in previous notes from others. Wish I bought more. This is drinking great now - no reason to hold longer. Love Auteur wines. Can't find it locally - I buy direct from the winery.
