  August 19, 2019 - Excellent showing. Youthful and structured, with buttery aromas of orchard fruit, glazed peaches, brioche, and a kiss of vanilla. It shows concentration and intensity yet it’s impressively balanced and restrained, with juicy acidity and a tactile mouthfeel providing tension and delineation to the expansive fruit flavors. Orange zest and a wisp of toast build and linger on the long, vibrant finish. Lovely and will get better with time. 92+

  May 17, 2019 - Bu en succ, en carafe depuis quelques heures selon les conseiliers.
  Charmeur, moderne et gras, pas mal de bois.
  C'est bien mais un verre est en masse.
  Manque de raffinement.

  December 17, 2018 - This is solid Chardonnay for the money: it has a pleasant steely and creamy quality that becomes apparent after an hour of air. Light yellow in color and medium in body, the wine offers aromas of green apple, saline, almond extract. Tastes of lemon peel, pear, gooseberry, and vanilla bean, with a bright and lingering finish that still maintains the wine's creamy, almost oily mouthfeel. 14.5% alcohol.
  
  This grew on me with air, so give it some time to open up. It's not incredibly original or edgy, but it is a well-made, classy, and widely-available CA wine for about $40 - so absolutely no complaints here. Given the acidity and structure, this may be even better in a year or so.
