Having had 10 or 11 bottles of this over time it has steadily gone down hill over the last few months- interesting to see a wine drop off like this - the wine got disjointed a bit over time and the finishwent from an enjoyable acidic finish to a harsh one- For $8 bones this was a wonderful wine over the 9 months I have had it and provided a good first hand look at how fast wine can evolve.

(Hess Chardonnay Select) #1; COLOR-medium golden; NOSE-butterscotch; a little Oak; PALATE-that is one good bottle of Chardonnay; really good fruit & complexity; good subtle oak; balanced throughout; I like the creaminess of the upfront fruit and the acid on the back-end; good length as well; a smokey burnt wood action; very good; one of the better CA Chards I've had in a while; very impressive; GV-90

Over the hill. Oxidized. Tasted like apple cider.

Smell: Melon, honey. Hint of vanilla, but not an oaky chard by any stretch. Finish hollows out with a little too much heat and a little soap.

Very nice, slightly Oaked. Clean and crisp. Enjoyed on deck June 26, 2010. Good affordable house chardonay.
