  March 18, 2017 - Wow. Pulled out of a corner in wine room for cooking and decided to taste it. And boom! This was golden yellow in color and in beautiful shape. It was buttery, smooth with a lovely nose of daisies. Very reminiscent of an aged Meursault. Balanced and delightful. I am just stunned that this is a 2006. I feel like I have been wasting my money chasing high cost California Chardonnay and White Burgundy. I am in shock!

  April 20, 2013 - This bottle was showing way too much oak, not enough fruit/butter to balance. Though drinkable, but not my style!

  February 19, 2012 - One of the better chardonnays we've had. Buttery oak. Deep, concentrated flavors and a crisp long, rich aftertaste.

  August 22, 2010 - Had over 2 nights, 2nd night with pesto chicken - not the best pairing. Plenty of acidity and buttery oak left. Some of the citrus notes were gone that were present when we first tried this vintage two years back.
