My third btl and I tasted this blind with the 2016 to see if my prior notes held up. It was very clear which btl was 2015. 2016 much cleaner and 2015 has some odd thing going on in the nose. Is it reduced? It previously have noted the scent of dish soap. Tonight it was canned green beans. Also consistent with prior notes, it tastes great. I just don’t like how it smells.

Absolutely superb. Captivating, varietally pure nose of lemon curd, rich floral notes, butter, but lemon at the forefront. So smooth on the palate. Not a ton of acid, so all the buttery, lemony, waxy flavors and textures feature. Still sharp, though; the acid just drives the other flavors forward. Long finish. This was a joy.

I know this is below the average, but the other persons along with myself made this same statement "this wine taste like an inexpensive based wine" int other words...not worth the money

Citrus overtones with substantial acidity. Agree with others that this is more like a Chablis than a buttery Calif. Chard. Need to like the style. I thought, though, that this was a touch below earlier vintages.

Lovely Chardonnay, drinking very nicely now. Melons, lemon & key lime zest, with straw and hay scents, green apple and muskmelon flavors, acidity in balance as it has slightly aged. Finish is a wee bit short, but overall a nice wine.
