Agree with the last review. It still has held up nicely and was not over-oaked. Definitely a Cali chard, but had some good structure. Great with lobster.

This wine (yes, I'm again drinking Chardonnay, I've stopped wondering why at this point) was lovely. It gave me tropical fruit, lemons, a nice dab of vanilla and left my mouth with just the faintest hint of buttered popcorn. Not intrusive, not "over the top", must a lovely accomplice to my oven-roasted Monchong (this is a fish), greens and quinoa - chalk it up to "food wine" status and call it a day.

Lemon cream pie and sprite soda, maybe a hint of fresh herbs. Weighty palate. Big malo feel and palate, some butter popcorn, again with the lemon cream pie, and in this style this isn't bad. Creamy finish with decent but mild backing acidity.
