  Got better with air. An hour decant seemed to be the sweet spot.

  Another great wine on the lake in Coeur d'Alene. It opened with a hint of bitterness, but that was quickly gone. It settled into a highly drinkable wine of elegance and finesse. Worth the wait.

  This was wonderful, ideal with the artisan cheeses and salad before dinner.
  
  Golden colored, medium-full bodied, rich, warm nicely integrated white peach, stone and citrus fruits with layers of floral, buttery oak and slate minerality with nice balance of oak and acid on the full mouthfeel lingering finish. Wine Enthusiast describes "its touching intriguingly on sweet Maui onion and finishing with light vanilla-custard flavor".

  This chardonnay has a nose of granny apple, peach stone, and a hint of pineapple. The oak is prominent and the finish is extremely smooth. Excellent!

  Well made Chardonnay with rich stone fruits with notes of apple, lemon curd with a full buttery finish. Perfectly balanced, complex and drinking perfectly right now.
