Drink by 2020 in my cellar; 3/1/2020-7/8/2020: Very nice Chardonnay. A bit woody, more than a little spicy, citrus and white peach notes. Very pleasant with or without food. Drink now; this is unlikely to improve and could start to fall off soon.

Tasted, along with the 2012 Richard Dinner Estate. Aromas and flavors are bold from the start. Woody aromas and caramel and butterscotch on the palate. Long finish.

Aromatic, with a flint, steely nose, permeated by canteloupe, a sweet hint of butterscotch, and pineapple.
The palate is slightly metallic with lemon, granny smith apple, wet stone.
Super clean finish without a hint of alcohol.
Paired with Blue Crab, Spiced Corn, Whipped Chervil. Good pairing, although the sweetness of the crab and corn tended to bring out a little too much heat in the wine.

At the winery, beautiful chard, floral nose: aromatic, faint butterscotch. Very smooth on the palate, nuanced oak, faint finish that drifts away... Superb. One of my two favorite wines of the tasting today.

Really great wine! Big rich, loads of glycerine. wonderful stone fruit - peach and apricot, with honey overtones - lemon in the background. Love it! Drinking nicely now and will last at least 10 years.
