  1/1. Deep golden color here. Smells like buttered popcorn, butterscotch, lemon, apple, vanilla, and wood. Medium (+) body, medium acid and finish, and flavors of lemon curd, yellow apple, butterscotch, and minerals. Not sure if age is a factor here, although it's not faded or soft, but it's a little manipulated and heavy handed for me.

  High rating due to longevity of the chardonnay
  Lemon, meringue, still zesty with crackers
  A joy to taste as it is 6 years old
  Still has some green tinge to it in the glass

  Citrus, lemon merengue, pineapple, with rounded mouthfeel and excellent acidity. Delightful.

  As others have said, buttery with citrus overtones. Better as it warms up.
