Was better than I expected for a 2011 Cali Chard. Mature wine with good fruit notes, minerality, balanced oak and acidity. Excellent pairing with a cheese and meat plate. 90+ pts. PJP 2016.

We bought a case of this from WTSO and the first bottle was completely oxidized. The second bottle was better, but still off. The third bottle? Just right. In fact, it was better than "just right", it was a fine rendition of a Big California Chardonnay that Mike Drash is known for making. I just wish I did not have to play a version of Golden Wine and the Three Bottles to find it. thedrunkencyclist.com
