    December 6, 2018 - A really nice WA Chardonnay. Probably the best I can recall.
    Lovely aromas and the palate was complex yet light. It didn't have the weight I associate with oaked Chardonnay in WA. Nicely done and could have gone for much longer in my cellar.
    Would buy again.

    September 17, 2018 - This was absolutely wonderful. Lots of white floral notes with stone fruit effervescent. This bottle showed no signs of aging, and drank well over 4 hours. Loved this win, alas I have no more.

    August 5, 2018 - The fruit appeared to have been fading, but it retained a nice balance, with supporting acid and a touch of oak for texture. My guess is that I might have enjoyed this more a year or two ago, but it was still good. Probably in the upper echelon of WA Chardonnay.

Though some (old) wood is there it's not new-oak vanilla treacle. Even veering towards green apple, with slight oxidative notes that add a very nice complexity. Overall, a nice weekday bottle.

    July 12, 2017 - Enjoyed this bottle, lots of sweet white fruit, a buttery component, reasonable acidity to balance, and some almond on the finish. Nice complement to my shrimp scampi.

    August 1, 2016 - Tasted in a flight of four white Burgundies, an Aubert UV-SL, and a Chablis Sauvignon Blanc. This wine was the most fruit forward of the flight and showed a canned or creamed corn element, yet backed by piercing acidity and substance. Captivating and exceptionally well made. 92-93.

    February 6, 2016 - Nice wine. Nose had more mineral than typical WA Chard but the fruit is still there. Crisp, complex, long finish. Really lovely white.
    Would buy again.
