    April 29, 2022 - This held up remarkably well; definitely not deteriorating yet. Immediately identifiable as a California chardonnay, but restrained on the butter and oak. Very pleasant!

    January 3, 2021 - Œil : paille léger, étincelant, forte visco en parois, la couleur n’a rien d’un vin de 10 ans...
    Nez : projection de forte intensité, crème fraîche, boisé présent et passablement fondu, abricot, confiture de pêche, kumquat, touche végétale, touche minérale, épices douces rappelant la cannelle et des herbes froides, superbe nez
    Bouche : sec, plutôt gras, acidité rafraîchissante +, légère prise minérale, persistance longue, homogène, certainement Nouveau-Monde mais avec beaucoup d’élégance. Il n’y a rien ici qui donne dans la caricature dans laquelle certains Chardo américains donnent... et c’est super ainsi.
    ABS : 91
    Rqp-Terroir : +1

    January 25, 2016 - I loved the nose on this with notes of honey, vanilla, and just a hint of burnt oak. Smelled like a nice mix of flowers when it warmed to room temperature. Flavors of green apple, pears, and peels of orange on the palate. Nice complex finish that was pleasant and provided great QPR. My only bottle bought at auction and it was magnificent. I was concerned given this was two years past the suggested drinking window but this was excellent. Highly recommended and I would look at future vintages to purchase if the price was reasonable.

    October 4, 2014 - Tart lemon, high acidity, tons of toasty oak, low complexity, drink sooner than later.
