  Nicely crafted chardonnay showing notes of yellow orchard fruit, melon, citrus, and a kiss of vanilla. It's unshowy but with a favorable cut and balance to go along with a nice dusting of baking spices.

  Good! Balanced flavors, creamy textures, and impressive depth. Oak, honey, and buttery notes stood out. Very clean and wasn’t overly oaky. Notes of lemon zest, pear, vanilla, apple, and brioche. I really liked this! I thought it was well balanced between oak and acidity making it a good drink. Smooth and luxurious. Full and lasting impression! I wouldn’t mind another glass thank you!

  I like the up front flavors as lemon, pear and apple coat the palate. Mid palate tapers off and finish is flabby. Seems like this vintage is lacking acidity

  Concur with other notes--moderate rich, lemon, bit of oak showing as quite light vanilla, softer yellow fruit and apple lurking, a bit of spice hits the finish adding interest. Good balance and length, nice.
