Pop and pour, benchmarking. On the nose: soft flinty reduction plays surprisingly well with the sweet apple, citrus. On the palate: soft acidity in the foreground, lacking tension, but lovely density. Acidity picks up on the chalky and white-pepper close.

Flinty reduction somewhat flattened the expression on day one. Nice balance of citrus and white orchard fruit flavors with a kiss of oak. Perhaps a bit lean but I can imagine this unfurling to even better effect with another year or three. 92+

I didn't really get the hype on this Chardonnay, and would not spend nearly $39 again on it. Sorry.

Not much movement from my last btl, unsurprisingly. Another excellent showing.
