Pale yellow with a clear rim. 14.5% ABV. This starts out on the tropical side: pineapples, mangoes, white flowers and a even a hint of lychee make up the aromatic profile. Then quite solid in the mouth, with a strong tactile, stony sensation, along with some citrus and hints of ginger to boot. There is ample dry extract, length and refinement, and the wine is now clearly in its drinking window. A very fine CA Chardonnay, that is powerful yet balanced. 92.

I thought this was a good Chardonnay, nice light weight and good fruit. I would have liked a touch more acid to really make it stand out.

Apples with orange peel, nice minerality, a taste of oak. Finishes with s razor sharp acidity that goes on for 60 seconds.

Our first taste. Agree with other tasting notes. No flaws. Great chardonnay. Will enter a more extensive note with subsequent bottles. Ready to drink.
