May 11, 2019 - Dark yellow; very powerful, very intense nose, butter, concentrated; concentrated deep honey-like texture with lots of sweetness; forget all about normal whites, this one is a meal in itself

April 7, 2018 - Medium gold color. Aromas of pear compote, nutmeg and wood spices. Ripe, nicely structured fruit in the mouth with very good depth and length. The wine was fully intact and remarkably fresh given visual signs of oxidation. Delicious with spicy spot prawns. The wine did start to decline after about 25 minutes. Drink up!

July 28, 2017 - Bought two bottles. The first was completely oxidized. This one is, however, a completely different story. Great vibrant golden colour. Restrained nose with apple, pear, white peach(?), hint of honneysuckle, just a tad of oak. Still vibrant despite its age, probably because of good Acidity. A burgundy white from California (which in my opinion is as good as it gets).

May 19, 2017 - Chicago Wine Flock...Winefool Serving Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, Mostly Burgundy (Hughes House - Chicago IL): Tasted double blind. Enticingly floral start. Lots of ripe apple and poached pear aromas/ flavors with slightly sweet spice. Very good concentration. My #1 wine in the flight, group's #4. Shocked when this was unveiled, but I find Vine Hill to be the Kistler Chardonnay that consistently ages gracefully.
