November 25, 2022 - Long gone. Smelled like turpentine.

September 15, 2014 - Pale old gold with amber tinges, fading to clear on the edge. Fully mature, herbal, with dried fruit and nut predominating. Bits of citrus oil remain on the nose. Very fat and unctuous, overall well balanced with a medium finish. For those who like full immature Chardonnay, this is quite nice, but it has surely lost its youthful vibrancy.
