95 Points

Saturday, May 30, 2020 - Socially Distanced Wine Joe,Wendy,David,Andrea,Bill,Ashley,Harry,Anne (Casa Vasquez - Princeton NJ): First wine of the evening, supplied by Wendy and Joe. From a magnum, nicely chilled. Drank over an hour.

Full brassy gold color. Big buttery nose, honey, kiwi lime, floral notes. Palate showing candied citrus, nectarines, butterscotch and oak. Primary flavors linger through the mid palate. Full body and finish

Beautifully aged, has gone the distance developing depth and complexity. You have to like the style, this is very classic California chardonnay. Really great showing - should hold for a few more years but not sure it gets any better from here. Worth opening now if you have a few....
