Pure, light, lemon curd-yellow, very pretty. Nose on the buttery, floral side. Similar palate, with a little citrus that adds excellent acidity, and the alcohol under control. A bit more fruit emerges on the short finish. Simple but clean, a reasonable Chardonnay value but nothing special anymore, to be consumed soon.

Very pale gold. Flowers and honey dominate the nose and palate, with passing green apple, butter, and dandelion notes. No wood, firmly acidic, fairly short finish. Not bad this time, but the fruit is a bit hidden. Interesting bottle variation here.

Rich golden yellow. Strangely closed, with a passing whiff of cork. Nice acidity, some rich citrus, and a short finish. Still fair, but this bottle was definitely spoiled by the hint of TCA.

Generally similar to previous bottles. Holding up surprisingly well, a bit tart for sipping but nice for cooking.

Simple, a bit grassy this time, but nicely balanced and still showing some decent honeyed fruit.
