Not sure what to think of this. Color was funky, so golden it was almost a rose. Drank just fine, not premox. Disappointing for my expectations. Perhaps there were storage issue prior to my ownership.

shared with pat at selkirk manor. celebrating her birthday. we have tried the rest. now, it was time to try the best. this is a very prestigious bottling. i was forced to open it as i feared that i may have kept it too long. golden color. just a hint of oxidation, but not enough to detract significantly from an overall pleasurable experience. generous nose and palate with a broad spectrum of aromas and flavors. citrus (lemon), oceanic minerality, some acid. more complexity than is offered by most california chardonnays. although, a comparative tasting with ramey would be interesting. medium finish. will look for this wine again but in a younger vintage.

Gold color. With some open time, lemon and wet stone on the nose. Good structure with a mineral finish. This was paired with a chicken dinner, but has the acid to work with just about any fish.

Winestreets does 2009 Red Burgundy (Acqua Restaurant): Drinking really well right now and a rich wine. Good concentration on the palate featuring shells, orange peel, spice and minerals. Complex medium to long finish and a balanced wine. Drink now or enjoy over the next three years.

Light gold. Citrus, summer fruit on nose. Palate starts off delicate, adding some weight after 30 minutes. I would pop and pour. Plus this bottle had a hint of oxidation on the finish, but seemed to disappear after 30 minutes, so I would drink up.
