January 9, 2021 - Drank from Bin East 18. In cellar since July 2017 after Karla’s Ironman Santa Rosa. $28.00. Light butterscotch vanilla nose. Sparkling medium yellow. Burst of vanilla then butterscotch and dry acidic finish. Past prime a bit. 6/10.
April 13, 2018 - Excellent Chardonnay d'une très bonne région, chêne très agréable et bien balancé avec notes de cassonade.
March 6, 2018 - Strong citrus, lemon peal, yellow apple, sea shells, good balance. Nice wine.
March 5, 2018 - $20
March 5, 2018 - Ok
February 1, 2018 - Aromas of honey-poached pear, green apple, nutmeg and cream. Has some nice acidity to balance the somewhat forward oak The toasty notes add nice dimension to the pear and apple notes and there's hints of grilled pineapple. A tinge of cinnamon zest.
September 27, 2017 - Nice chardonnay which should continue to improve over the next year plus. Golden yellow. Nose of lemon, butter, vanilla and oak. Palate follows the nose with peach, butter cream and a hint of stone fruits. Medium mouth feel and body; well balanced with only a slightly heated finish. Very solid wine which should appeal to most "white wine" drinkers.
September 23, 2017 - Solid wine. A bit too much fresh cut lumber profile for the oak, at least for my tastes. Light gold in color. The nose has fresh cut lumber and slight grapefruit. On the palate, similar profiles. Slightly searing on the back end. Drink this cold IMO. YMMV.
August 27, 2017 - Medium gold with green hints; nose of lemon, buttered popcorn, white peaches, and vanilla; palate follows nose; medium/long finish; well balanced; always a crowd pleaser
June 27, 2017 - Not half bad. Reasonably restrained for California Chardonnay, moderate oak, and very good balance.
