June 27, 2021 - Pineapple juice in colour. Beautiful bouquet of glazed pineapple and wild fig. Burnt caramel and tropical fruit in the mouth with a rich syrupy viscosity. Truffled butter dominates the very long finish. This is ageing incredibly well with tons of balance. We drink our Chards way too young and give up some much.

February 18, 2019 - Butter colored, interesting unique butterscotch flavor permeates the citrus accenting a layer of pear and apple.

October 6, 2018 - Nose- Apple, peach, honeysuckle. Some vanilla notes as well
Appearance- showing its age with a rich yellow gold. Cork ripped in two but got it out.
Palate- secondary MF showing like most Beringer PR. Oak, vanilla, pear, peach with a mouth coating honey. Nice linger. Mouthfeel on the heavier end for a white but about right for a big Napa Chardonnay. -

November 23, 2017 - Lemon - pepper - vanilla nose.
Very smooth, but lacks acidity and mineral flavors to stand out. Has some lemon, vanilla and pineapple notes.
Ok, but nothing special. Won’t but again. -

September 6, 2017 - At 7 years old, shows no premature decline or oxidation, but neither has it aged into something better. Light yellow with no brown tint. Light butter aroma with no butterscotch. Has a smooth upfront texture in the sip. The acidity is below refreshing. Decent with fatty shrimp. Drinkable but nothing especially good. As we have many better wines, will most likely become our white cooking wine.
