  Nice pale gold color, and soft aroma of green apples. Flavor is...a tad odd at first, but opened up with some glass time. Had the flavor of a blanc des blancs sparkler without the bubbles. Surprisingly long-lived for a Virginia bottle, but glad it held up.

  Delicate, tropical notes, gentle oak, slight hint of vanilla, not crisp but balanced.

  So well made. Tightly wound ripe orchard fruit, fresh hay, honeysuckle, subtle cedar and oak lead, with tightly wound saline/slate minerality and citrus acidity driving through the finish. Quite good now, but will certainly improve with time on its side. Hold.

  Mineral. Flint. Good acid balance. Excellent to pair w/food.

  Does not offer much by way of flavor, but at the least, it is a wet Chardonnay and won't leave you parched
