Gordonium Likes this wine:
November 24, 2021 - In great shape with proper cellaring since release. Advanced, but not overtly oxidized. Rich, tropical, ripe. Minerality keeps it gelunded. Excellent with truffle gnocci, prosciutto flatbread, and fig jam & bleu cheese flatbread. Drink before 2023.

November 25, 2016 - I love older chardonnays, and this one is no exception. Flavors of ripe pear and pineapple with a long honey finish. Exceptional wine.

August 12, 2016 - Yummy! Big honey and baked apple. Hints of butter with great acidity. Has developed into an outstanding wine with food.

July 13, 2015 - Delicious. Rich, without being overpowering. Probably would have been at peak a year ago. Fruit is wonderful, but don't need to hold any longer. Lush, but not tropic.
