  This is a fantastic wine. My friends called it "the Precious." We fought over the last drops during appetizers. Libby won. She got most of it, but it really is amazing wine. Yummy!!

  Fresh and delicious.
  
  Citrus with minerality and saline finish.

  Not as high a rating as prior bottle. Paired well with fresh-made Bucatini in a garlic lemon and basil sauce; baked beets & turnips from Frog Bench; roasted Salmon with a yogurt dill lemon sauce; Frog Bench radishes; and a Frog Bench lettuce salad. Popped to feed to my parents as we celebrated my Mom's 83rd birthday tonight. Happy to have Cate, Christina & Morgan here to celebrate. Tomorrow, we travel. Not sure why this bottle was a bit below the last bottle. Bottle variation? Who knows. Cheers

  My oldest daughter moves to Colorado tomorrow with her boyfriend Landon. To send her off in style, Christina and I invited Adie's Mom and her husband over for a send off dinner. I cooked BBQ burgers, baked cauliflower, a green salad, and my former spouse brought a cheese plate. In honor of the occasion, I started the night with this wine. My former spouse does not like Chardonnay, but loved this wine. It is a real treat. I wish I had cases of this stuff. It is amazing. It never disappoints. Tonight, we sent my daughter and her boyfriend off to the wilds of Boulder, Colorado in style. A perfect ending to an amazing mother's day that started out with brunch with my 82-year-old Mom and Dad at SLC Eatery, followed by a live comedy hour at my mother-in-law's house, and to wind out the day, dinner at our house with my former spouse, her husband, and most of our kids (Cate is in NYC). Never take life for granted. Celebrate those magic moments of life when a path on the road opens. Tonight, we wished Adie and her boyfriend Landon a fond farewell as they head out into an unknown future. Protected by angels. They are very loved. This is a great wine for nights like tonight. Peace.

  Same as before. I truly love this wine. Jim and I drank it in about 5 minutes with peel and eat BBQ shrimp. It was a great warm up for the Groom Shiraz with followed. After that, things get a bit blurry.
