  From the fridge. Decanted to a carafe. Medium to light, clear gold color. Green apple, light oak on the nose. Tight initially, opening as it warmed a bit. Medium plus acid. Oak becoming more prominent as it warmed. The balance seems a little sub-optimal. The last glass was perhaps the best, so maybe a longer decant is called for. This is a very good Chardonnay, but at this rarified price point, there are better Sonoma Chards in my opinion e.g. Aubert’s offerings.

  From magnum. Fruit forward, medium-heavy weight in the mouth. Nuances of smoke, ripe pear, honey and white tea. Years ahead of this one.

  Somewhat muted nose of white flowers and sea breeze. Tastes of lemon meringue, dried pineapple and peach. Fairly restrained oak. Medium+ acidity. Long creamy finish. Nicely balanced and quite elegant!

  Totally amazing. Light, bright golden color. Nose of pears, citrus & butter. Medium bodied. This baby was outstanding from Smoked Sweet Potato Soup with Crab, pan seared red grouper to French Butter Cookies.
