January 13, 2018 - Full bodied. Not as jammy and creamy as my last bottle 10 months ago. Quite pleasant beverage.

March 23, 2017 - Thick creamy nose. Swirving brings out citrus. Ample acidity. Maybe too much to sip by itself. I would definitely recommend pairing with food.

October 29, 2014 - Citrus, green apple, floral and hints of oaky aromas. Medium (+) body, with a lot of acidity. Silky, oily, but yet crisp texture. Pretty solid lemon finish.

October 26, 2014 - Fairly big melony/flowery nose. Quite crisp on the tongue. I can still get them melon and hints of lilac, but the dominant flavor is lemony tartness. This not a full-bodied Chardonnay that many crave. It is an easy-to-drink, refresher that can be enjoyed with or without accompanying solid food.

May 25, 2014 - Great aromatic nose, complex and inviting. Yellow fruit, minerals, not overoaked or unbalanced. Awesome complexity and delicate Chardonnay. A very fresh wine with lots of acidity and backbone to last for several years. 91/92 + now.
