  June 1, 2020 - Drank from Bin East 8. WSLCB $11.00. In cellar since November 2009. Hint of oak on nose. Dark yellow. Full body buttery with long chewy finish and touch of apple and oak. Amazingly delightful very old Chardonnay. 8/10.

  March 28, 2015 - Light yellow medium body and alcohol. Pleasant nose followed by very nice chardonnay fruit with hints of apple and vanilla. Almost no oak. Pleasant nose. This was a very nice wine.

  August 8, 2012 - Light golden in color. In the nose, citrus and sour apple and a hint of straw. On the palate its a really accessible wine with a refreshing acidity, apples. A hint of butter and smoke in the end. One of my favorite regions for chardonnay. Goes really well with lean fish and crab. The 2008 vintage should be drunk now though.
