Slightly more yellow color than last time. Nose; Honey dew melon, pineapple, creme brûlée, grapefruit, hint of ocean, flint, wet stones, sliced green apples. Drinking very close to what is represented by the nose with lemon, grapefruit, almonds, rounded out by vanilla, I guess the oak is showing up....which I don't like as much. As it warms the oak, vanilla is more prominent. The wine has matured fairly fast over 7-8 months. For $15 a pretty amazing wine.

Had another bottle 11 months ago and I think last time the wine was at its peak. Still very good and a very good QPR. Nose is just as good as last time but drinking it, the wine is not as good. Nose - pineapple, meyer lemon, passion fruit, hint of ocean, hint of burnt carmel. Drinking - I still say - drinks like a hybrid Meursault and Chablis. Slightest bitterness on finish together with lemon. A really nice wine but I think time to drink up.

Apple, oak, crisp, banana. We've seen some variances bottle to bottle

Rich Chardonnay - citrus and a little butter. Felt somewhat like a Sauvignon Blanc / Chardonnay blend even though it isn't. Medium body.
