June 23, 2023 - Tasty and oppulent wine. Sorbet quality to fruit but in very good balance to the acidity and mouth feel. Helps if you decant, but you can also patiently drink it till it shows its wonder. Maybe not the best buy at the price, but an excellent Chardonnay if you like classic American oak led styles.

March 28, 2021 - It is a fine Chardonnay. But, at least when buying from the winery, it is expensive compared to alternatives in the same neighborhood.

March 20, 2021 - Medium- bodied, traditional towards modern style. Green tint. Pears, white flowers, meringue (but not so lemony), seashell minerality. Low to moderate wood comes in the form of toasted pistachio shells and subtle spice, almost towards Graham cracker. Really nice entry level for serious Chardonnay, could this drink this anytime. Surprisingly good length at price point.
