Not sure a Chardonnay can get better than this. Aged 10 years, can easily go another 10, but we had to drink it on the 1st night of our 35th anniversary celebration/4-day motorcycle trip. This is drinking wonderfully right now. Has a beautiful nose of lemon curd, oak, vanilla and toasted coconut. The mouth feel is warm, soft and mouth coating with integrated rich flavors of lemon curd, light oak, toasted almonds and precisioned acidity. The beautiful flavors just linger in your mouth seemingly forever.

We wish we could afford to drink this every day. At least we get to enjoy an occasional bottle of this very special Chardonnay. So smooth and soft. The lush oily mouth feel, light lemon, mild butteriness, perfect oak treatment and refined acidity makes this an awesome pairing with Bob's crab cakes.

Medium gold color. Aromas of lemon oil, spice, pear and toast. Rich texture. Flavors of pear, honeycomb and tangerine. Delightful.

Drank along side the 2012 of the same wine. The '10 was a little softer had a nice slight buttery taste. Both wines had great minerality.

Disappointing for the price and reputation. Came across as unbalanced. Too much acidity.
