Creamy !!! The first word which comes to my mind . Very creamy stuff . But not fat or too much. There is minerality and structure . This is fully mature and really nice to drink . Pnp and a lot of fun . Drink up

Served to me double blind. Lots of tropical fruit and peach with some roasted nuts, vanilla and baking spice. At first I thought it younger Cali Chardonnay from a top classically-styled producer. When I was told it was Old World, I went right to Meursault 1er. Ripe and powerful, while still fresh, I thought this from 2005 or 2006. A very successful 2003.

Drank w/family at David & Lisa's for X-Mas Eve dinner Pale golden straw hue. Bold & dry white w/crisp acidity, soft minerality & a little heat on the moderately long finish. Butterscotch & white flowers are good descriptors & also picked up notes of pear & lime w/apricot on the nose. I found it enjoyable, although dinner crowd were mixed on this.

Trip to Burgundy; 3/20/2006-3/24/2006 (Burgundy): Tasting, brief note. Lots of ripe apple and tropical fruit with sweet spice. Good density and length. Certainly not classic, but very enjoyable for thw medium-term, with enough structure in background to probably drink well to (hopefully) 2020.
