  June 18, 2008 - nose: nice clean and focused nose with green apples, lemon, and mineral tones
  
  taste: good citrusy feel with green apple tones and lemon peels with bits of slate and minerals
  
  overall: a real quality unoaked chardonnay. Doesn't have the structure to really wow me and doesn't posses the acidity to move me, but a quality chard that is different then the normal california marmalade style. Nice crisp attack with a soft citrus finish

  May 21, 2008 - Very nice pale straw color. crisp, clean fruit aroma, only a little sharp acidity. tasted chilled.. very nice,, pear mostly, a little grapefruit-y. smooth, but no heavy butter taste at all. again, very clean, crisp minerality..and fruit that could have ended up on the sweet side,, but balanced very nicely.
