  October 4, 2014 - Another excellent bottle of this wine, in a perfect drinking window. Tropical fruits and tangerines, butter toast and minerals. Nice structure and finish.

  I also love the Ch. Montelena Chardonnays but I never aim to age those beyond 5-6 years, so they are less of an issue.
  
  Likewise Far Niente Chardonnay, which I love young but would never plan to age.
  
  Cheers, Mike G
