July 24, 2020 - Found this lacking complexity for the appelation and somewhat muted but remained a good wine

July 10, 2017 - Cork in pristine condition. Fully mature with a medium dark golden color. Nutty almond flavors but with a nice spine of acidity left. Long finish. Creamy body.

May 30, 2017 - Dinner at The Bristol (Chicago, IL): I was certainly very excited to try this, but alas, I wasn't particularly keen on this bottle. As expected by the trio of vintage, producer, and vineyard, this is a massively scaled, emphatically fat chardonnay. However, the ripe fruit is starting to show flabbiness, and without any reductive, acidic, or mineral cut to temper that fat, I'd say drink up. I toyed for a minute with the thought that this was showing the pox, but at the end of the day, I would think this is fairly representative of what I'd expect.

March 21, 2017 - Very mature but not premoxed with oxidized flavors of butterscotch and caramel but there is some underlying acidity left ot keep it interesting. It really perked up with the langoustine thermador dish. Drink up now man.
