  Leaner than I expected--plenty of acidity and I suspect it will improve with a few more years in bottle.

  Big fan of Ramey chardonnays like many other people. This one has nice gorgeous fruit. Sweet long finish. Just a delight on the palate. Alchohol of 14.5% was nicely integrated. I would love to hold on to these wines longer but they take up sooooo much space in my free standing cellar. I have a 2005 Ramey Hudson that just sings so one can wait a while before opening. I think this wine will continue to evolve over the next 5 years.

  Brief note from memory. Tense lemon and green apple fruit with fairly high acidity and some saline minerality. Touch of green herb. Creamy texture. Years from peak drinking.

  Kinda tight and lean with a ton of dry extract. Tons of structure, tons of tension but not heavy. Bill is loving it. Tons and tons of structure.
