Visually the wine is impressive with a medium gold core and aromas of over ripe tropical fruit such as guava, banana and lychee. On the palate, the notes of banana really explode. The wine is creamy and soft with plenty of focus. The wine is capable of aging with more time in cellar but is in a great place right now.

Very rich and very oaky, moderate acidity, moderate fruit profile; not my favorite style, but a very pleasant wine that would pair well with rich foods -lobster risotto or shrimp scampi. Opened bottle one night and finished two nights later- no slippage over the two days.

Rich and concentrated. Floral nose with hints of oak and spice. Mouth-coating creamy texture. Tropical fruits, butterscotch, spice and a healthy dose of oak. Medium finish. If you like creamy, oak, buttery Cali Chardonnay this will suit you fine. If you prefer crisp, acidic Chardonnay you will not find this to your liking.

Ripe, Rich, over done in a Rombauer style. Probably good at cocktail hour but not my cup of tea with food
