November 8, 2011 - Fresh, bright, citrus (mostly lemon), crisp apple, mineral and spice flavor with good acidity. Well structured, some sweetness on the nose, finishes with refreshing tartness.

June 11, 2011 - Pure, un-oaky style. Delicious clean nose of green apple, citrus, nectar, and the hint of white flowers. Extraordinary silky mouthfeel to complement the layers of tart apple, apricot, fine chardonnay grape, and a touch of spice. Excellent balance. Long.

November 2, 2010 - 11/2/10 at home alone. Brilliant color, good viscosity. Excellent banana-like fruit kissed by a judicious amount of oak. Very nice. Similar palate. Exceptionally well-balanced, fairly rich mouthfeel, with good acidity. Maybe Brett's finest chardonnay to date. 5-12-17-8: 92/100
