  This bottle was much better than the last one. This is on its drinking window as the oak has integrated and getting some secondary notes. Probably just not my style

  Saved the best one of these for last. Final bottle of this vintage in my cellar and I felt it was excellent. Polished and fully integrated and enjoyable from beginning to end. Certainly greater than he sum of its parts as it was in perfect balance and harmony. Lemon chiffon hints but really fully immersed. Great mouthfeel. This was singing!

  Was amazed at the change in color of this wine. I remember it being light colored with a tint of yellow. When I pures this it looked like extra virgin olive oil- deep golden color. It seemed to have lost some acidity but still presented as fully integrated. Tho oak foundation was there and the bright citrus overtones seemed to have become a bit more muted. Felt and tasted more mature than prior tastings- because it was! I would not let these go too much longer unless you are a fan of that.

  As this Chardonnay matures it keeps getting better.
  
  Both the nose and palate have a richness but not overly powerful, just well balanced. Some lemon curd with mild tropical fruits. A white that has a nice balance between crisp acidity and oak imparted softness.
  
  Pair with Tuscan Scallops wrapped in Prosciutto, a nice pairing!
