April 12, 2019 - 14.1% alcohol; 'Sonoma Coast', NY Wine Club premium selection, distributed by Global Wine Co.; heavy weight foil, real cork, long legs, amber color; nose of fruit and alcohol, traces of vanilla and lychee; tasted at ca 14 degrees C; a complex layered wine with some restraint but not too much in any one direction; no unpleasant Beigeschmack, nice balance, including the finish, some citrus and sweeter fruit; nevertheless not especially fruit forward; little trace of buttery quality or secondary malolactic fermentation, an outstanding chardonnay, cries out for pairing with Chilean Sea Bass, preferably grilled on a cedar board

October 7, 2018 - While this clearly had the ripest fruit of the group, it was not over the top in any way and was very enjoyable. Had it side by side with a 2010 Château de Chamirey Mercurey Blanc and 2015 Goodfellow Durant, and this fell in between the two for my preferences (liked the Goodfellow the best).

August 19, 2016 - Refreshing and expertly balanced. Medium acidity. Some oak, citrus, lemon, pineapple, honeysuckle and beautiful minerality. This is excellent.
