Community Tasting Notes 10

    November 21, 2015 - Drinking beautifully with lots of life still in the bottle. A slightly floral nose. Slight vanilla infused with fruit of apple/apricot. A long balanced finish that is simply balanced and wonderful.

    April 11, 2013 - Drank in magnum form. This is a huge chard full of lemon and tropical fruit flavors. Serrved on the colder side, it was a big unctuous beast with great fruit profile. Really enjoyable.

    January 29, 2012 - A wonderful wine much more in the style of a French montrachet. This bottle is sublime and in perfect harmony with it's constituent parts. Mineral, apple with hints of citrus. This is one of the better California chardonnays I have tasted.

    July 28, 2011 - Sop much better than the last bottle which I now convinced was flawed. This is rich, buttery, thick and sexy. Color was a bit cloudy bt t was a nice mix of lemon curd and creme brulee. Very tasty.

    May 8, 2011 - What a disappointment to the last time I tried this wine. Itmay have been flawed. It was plain out watery. The nose smelled great and it ended there. Flat wine, with no backbone, no depth. Lots of buttery nuances and some creamy vanilla without the fruit. Tasted like cream soda without the fizz.
