Has consistently been a great wine.....continues with this bottle. All kinds of flavors. It is no longer a young chardonnay......so, I am keeping my eyes on it. However, I do not see any signs of it rolling over yet.

Excellent wine! Rich, smooth, well balanced fruit and oak. Enjoyed with lobster and clams. Could have had a bit more acidity for these dishes but a beautiful wine with a long finish.

Delicious Chardonnay with silky mouthfeel and candied dried pineapple notes. Subtle oak with beautiful pure fruit. There is exceptional flavors here- light vanilla, excellent transition from nose to palate to finish. Beautifully integrated. Gorgeous in the glass. Glycerin but not heavy or overbearing. Just a gorgeous Chardonnay.

Enjoyed this so much more than the Rombauer chard that we had the night before, and which I reviewed unfavorably on this website. This is also buttery, but not bomb intensity, and it finishes with so much more finesse. The oak is subtle - couldn't find any description on the winemaker's website, so I emailed them and they were kind enough to reply with the following: "About 85% neutral each year with the remainder new. Always French and each vintage stays in barrel for at least 18 months, sometimes more!"

Very, very good. Pineapple note. Low on the citrus. Cannot identify the other flavors going on. Elegant. CT says drink by 2013. It does not seem to be tiring to me.

Still up to a prior 93 rating, but I think if may finally be tiring a little.

Wonderful wine! Notes of pineapple, Granny Smith apples and a hunt of dark caramel. Very well balanced, with full 20 second finish.
