Not a hint of over-age in this 7-year old Chardonnay. Super. Very different from, for example, the super-subtle Tan Fruit Chardonnays tasted a few weeks ago — in addition to the age difference, this is bigger, more mouth-filling, more of a concentrated sense. It’s not an oaky wine though. I like it.

At first this was a somewhat closed (pull and pour) but with air it opened more to reveal pear, apple, and creamy lemon, with a hint of oak. On day two though, this was better still (92-93). For my next bottle, I’ll hopefully remember to open it hours ahead, or overnight.

Lovely, this was full-bodied and silky, with lots of tasty tropical fruit and pear.

Full bodied and tasty, with more tropical notes than lemony ones, this bottle was a bit more advanced than other bottles drunk over the last year.

Drank well with Easter dinner appetizers. Crisp, concentrated, tasty, with apple, pear, and some citrus tanginess.
