The wine looks blonde colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. The body is medium. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has low acidity.
November 23, 2023 - Fruit gone, bitter, etc. my bad it wasn’t meant to last this long

March 23, 2019 - DenTinJaMa Inaugural (Chateau Lyon): End of plateau for this bottle, but still excellent. Nice viscosity and TINY oxidation note. Peach, golden apple, lemon zest and oak. Get yourself some cheese and do it!
April 11, 2017 - Golden yellow color. Aromas of peach, pineapple and honey. Palate has flavors of melon, pineapple and peach. Mild acidity with a slight bitterness in the finish. Still pleasant but not getting any better.
November 10, 2016 - This has evolved nicely. Big rich Chardonnay with flavors of apples, pears, and a hint of honey.
August 20, 2016 - Corked! I was looking forward to this but unfortunately it was not to be. First wax seal Pride, resulting in second corked Pride (out of many many bottles). Bummer...
July 6, 2016 - Decent chard but getting towards end of drinking window. Smooth silky profile but fruit is fading. Drink soon.
June 26, 2015 - Crisp chardonnay with flavors of apple and pear with some oak. I expected a little more from this wine but it still very good.
May 25, 2015 - Interesting, with surprisingly lots of citrus notes. I liked its difference, but not a great CA Chard. Drink this summer.
